Description : The Rafah crossing point is vitally important to Gazans, since it is the Gaza Strip's only crossing with a country other than Israel. The Rafah crossing point between Gaza Strip and Egypt started operating – with some restrictions – at the end of May 2011 on a permanent basis for the first time in four years.
