Rafah, Egypt - February 01, 2025 Egyptians on Saturday gathered near the Rafah border crossing to express opposition to the displacement of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip. The protests came in response to U.S. President Donald Trump's proposal for Egypt and Jordan to take in displaced Palestinians, a suggestion condemned by both nations. Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi said the displacement of Palestinians is an act of "injustice," in which Egypt will not participate. Jordan's Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi said no solution to the Palestinian issue will come at the expense of Jordan or the Palestinians' rights to their land, freedom, sovereignty, and dignity. Egyptians have come out to voice their solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza and denounced any plans for their forced relocation. Shotlist: Rafah border crossing, Egypt - Feb 1, 2025: 1.
