“Officials said that Israel and Egypt were prepared to let foreigners leave the Strip which is under heavy Israeli bombardment, but Hamas had refused.”

I thought your claim was that they’re not crossing because of the bombing, but in the article you linked they’re saying they’re still trying to cross and the the reason they’re unable to is Egypt.
My claim was that they were being bombed at the crossing, which was killing people.
But the whole discussion is about who is blocking Gaza, Israel alone or Israel and Egypt
Bombing the crossing prevents crossings
Not per the article you posted and even the most recent news that are about how almost nobody can cross because Egypt isn’t letting them through. They’re trying, even with the bombing, but very very few are being let through. And that’s according to the people trying to cross.
The policy of the Netanhayu government is genocide and the events at the crossing are consistent with that policy.
How is that relevant to who is blocking the pass?
