Dr. Omar Shaban, Director of PalThink for Strategic Studies, believes that Cairo’s announcement today of opening the Rafah land crossing “until further notice” is a positive indicator resulting from the first day of the Palestinian factions’ meetings, calling for this step to become the basis of the dialogues.
Shaban said in a post on his Facebook page: “It is a positive indicator, whether the decision came as a result of the dialogue or to encourage the delegations by demonstrating the benefits that can be achieved,” noting that Cairo is determined this time to achieve a real breakthrough.
