I am always curious, why does Egypt not want to help Palestinian refugees? Or even allow then to travel through?
Good question. The official position is that they would not be able to go back to gaza once the war ended. And therefore they would be helping israel in displacing the palestinian people of their lands.
Plus, i suspect no one really wants 2M "permanent" refugees. On election season no less.
They can, and they do: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/oct/19/egypt-rafah-crossing-aid-enter-gaza-why-closed-israel-us-egypt?trk=public_post_comment-text
Dont quote me on this, but i think the majority (all) of aid comes through egypt.
Thing is, it "has" to have the supervision of Israel or else they would whine about weapons in trucks.
