<p>We welcome the repeated opening of the Rafah crossing for evacuation of the severely
injured from Gaza that Egypt has facilitated throughout the current crisis, as well
as the humanitarian aid packages it has supplied. We remain concerned about the fragile
humanitarian situation in Gaza. We continue to encourage the Egyptian authorities
to ease movement especially for humanitarian reasons through Rafah. The Secretary
of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my right hon. Friend the Member for
Runnymede and Weybridge (Mr Hammond), raised the Rafah crossing with the Egyptian
President during his visit to Cairo on 24 July.</p><p> </p>
