BRUSSELS (Reuters) - The European Union will restart a civilian mission to monitor the border crossing between Gaza and Egypt at Rafah, the bloc’s foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said on Monday.
“Everyone agrees that EUBAM Rafah can play a decisive role in supporting the ceasefire,” Kallas said.
“Today, EU Foreign Ministers agreed to redeploy it to the Rafah Crossing Point between Gaza and Egypt. This will allow a number of injured individuals to leave Gaza and receive medical care,” she added.
