<p>The Gaza Reconstruction Mechanism is now working. Over 52,000 people have been
able to buy materials to repair their homes. Part of the UK pledge at the Gaza Reconstruction
Conference in October 2014 is support for the Mechanism and materials entering through
Gaza/Israel crossings. We are, however, concerned about the closure of the Rafah Crossing
and the impact that this has on urgent medical and other priority cases in Gaza. We
have raised this with our contacts with the Egyptian government and asked the Egyptian
authorities to show flexibility in opening the crossing.</p><p> </p>
