In an advisory, the embassy said that the Rafah crossing will open at 9 a.m. on Monday, citing media reports
“We anticipate that the situation at the Rafah crossing will remain fluid and unpredictable and it is unclear whether, or for how long, travelers will be permitted to transit the crossing.
“If you assess it to be safe, you may wish to move closer to the Rafah border crossing — there may be very little notice if the crossing opens and it may only open for a limited time,” the advisory added.
On Sunday after his talks with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken had said that “Rafahwill be open”.
The Rafah crossing between Gaza and Egypt is the only remaining outlet to get people out of the enclave and supplies into it.
But it remained closed for much of the past week.
