The Palestinian Authority has rejected an Israeli proposal for a conditional opening of the Rafah crossing, according to a source speaking to Sky News Arabia today, Monday. The source stated that "Israel proposes to open the Rafah crossing managed by civilians not linked to the Palestinian security apparatus." The source added that the Israeli proposal prohibits raising the Palestinian flag at the Rafah crossing and on the borders, noting that Israel insists on remaining in the vicinity of the crossing and the Philadelphia route and intervening for inspections and questioning. The source emphasized in their statement to Sky News Arabia that the Palestinian Authority rejects the proposal and insists on the 2005 agreement for the operation of the Rafah crossing, demanding a complete Israeli withdrawal from the crossing.
