The Rafah crossing is open today, after 12 days of being closed.

Even during the days that it is open, very few people have been allowed to cross.

Human rights organizations are almost completely silent.

Here's the Rafah crossing calendar for the past few months:

34 Gazans who flew into Cairo airport were deported from Egypt through Rafah today. No human rights organizations said a word.

Two youths who were caught sneaking into Egypt were shot by Egyptian security. No human rights organizations said a word.

I am not sure if the Italian delegation that was stuck in Gaza managed to leave today. Here's another photo of one of its members helping the poor Gazans posing for a photo to prove what a humanitarian she is. 

The "Miles of Smiles" convoy was allowed to enter Gaza today, though.
