00:00We go now to Palestine. As this Friday, several foreign ministers have rejected

00:05the announcement made by Israel regarding the Rafa crossing and the authorization solely for

00:11outbound circulation. The foreign ministers of Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Indonesia,

00:17Pakistan, Kiev, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt have objected to Israel's announcement to open in

00:23the coming days the Rafa border crossing to allow exclusively the departure of Palestinians

00:28from Gaza and into Egypt. In a joint statement, they demanded that Israel adhere to the U.S. plan,

00:35including its provisions on maintaining the crossing, which envisions movement in both

00:41directions, guaranteeing the population's freedom of circulation. They reaffirmed that

00:46they will continue working on the basis of that plan.
