Rafah
Rafah sits at the southern tip of the Gaza Strip, next to Egypt’s Rafah border crossing. It often appears in headlines because it’s a key entry point for aid, people and goods. When fighting flares in Gaza, Rafah’s crossing and its neighborhoods become critical for humanitarian access and civilian safety.
