Passage through the Rafah border crossing checkpoint has been blocked for everyone due to a truce between the Hamas Resistance Movement and the Israeli regime in the Gaza Strip and the evacuation will continue after the humanitarian pause is over, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told TASS.
"Due to the declared humanitarian pause, passage through the Rafah checkpoint has been temporarily blocked for citizens of any country. After the humanitarian pause is over, the evacuation of residents will resume," she said.
The temporary ceasefire entered into force on Friday, after Tel Aviv's latest aggression against Gaza killed nearly 15,000 Palestinians. The Israeli regime's genocidal war began on October 7 after the territory's Resistance groups launched Operation al-Aqsa Storm into the occupied territories.
