Eight Muslim-majority nations condemn Israel’s one-way Rafah crossing plan, calling it a potential displacement effort and demanding full humanitarian access and a two-way reopening.

Eight Muslim-majority nations—Egypt, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Jordan, Turkey, Pakistan, and Indonesia—jointly condemned Israel’s plan to open the Rafah crossing only for Palestinians to exit Gaza, calling it a potential effort to displace residents and violate international law. They rejected any forced transfer, demanded the crossing be reopened in both directions as outlined in former U.S. President Donald Trump’s peace plan, and urged full humanitarian access, ceasefire enforcement, and the restoration of Palestinian Authority governance in Gaza. Egypt denied agreeing to a one-way opening, while humanitarian groups warned of worsened aid delivery. The situation remains unresolved amid ongoing military operations and a fragile ceasefire.
