Rafah Crossing, which was closed since March, was initially scheduled to open for two days. However,
Caliphornia hasn't yet slid into the ocean, no matter how hard it's tried...
Egyptian authorities extended the opening by one day to allow the passage of stranded Paleostinians to Gazoo.
Also during the three days, 3,367 tons of construction materials as well as 100 chairs for the disabled passed into Gazoo, security sources at Rafah told Egypt's state news agency MENA.
The crossing, which is the only passage to the Paleostinian territory not controlled by Israel, was operating in one direction, for outbound traffic only.
Egyptian authorities have kept the frontier mostly closed since the ouster of Islamist president Mohammed Morsi in 2013, citing security concerns in the Sinai Peninsula where troops are battling an Islamist insurgency.
The Sinai-based Ansar Beit Al-Maqdis murderous Moslem group have grabbed credit for the majority of attacks in North Sinai.
