Wakimbizi ambao hawataamia kwenye kambi zinazojengwa na Israel, wameachiwa wajifie huko Rafah
=============
Egypt is constructing a wall along its border with the Gaza Strip in Rafah, where 1.3 million civilians remain displaced as Israel clashes with Hamas terrorists, Egyptian officials told the Wall Street Journal on Thursday.
The wall, which is set to span 8 square miles, is being developed as Egyptian officials fear refugees from Gaza will flood into the country after Israel removes Hamas from power. Arab media first reported the construction in December, though the WSJ and New York Times have now confirmed the development of a barrier along the Egypt-Gaza border.
Egypt has previously declared its opposition to any Israeli offensive in the southern Gaza Strip that could destabilize its border with the strip. The Egyptian foreign ministry said on Sunday Sunday of the “grave consequences” of an Israeli military operation in Rafah and called on Israel to refrain from “taking measures that would further complicate the situation and would harm the interests of everyone involved without exception.”
