Israel Gaza war: Explosion at Rafah crossing between Gaza and Egypt


CCTV footage which has been verified by the BBC after it aired on an Egyptian news channel, appears to show the moment an airstrike hits the Rafah crossing area between Gaza and Egypt.

The extent of the damage is unclear and there are no reports of casualties.

Palestinians have been gathering at the Rafah border crossing with Egypt in the southern Gaza Strip in the hope of leaving ahead of an expected Israeli ground offensive.

On Monday, crowds gathered at the crossing following reports that it would be temporarily reopened during a brief ceasefire, but no reopening materialised.
