    It’s good then that Egypt decided to help their muslim brothers out and send fuel, food and supplies over their border.

      I was curious why Egypt and Hamas are enemies, apparently the military government of Egypt is constantly fighting religious factions, so helping a religious faction in the neighboring territory, or even letting them immigrate through refugees, would be destabilizing to the Egyptian government. Therefore it’s not tenable

        Also Palestinians have a history of carrying out terrorism in Egypt and all other neighbouring countries, so Egyptians do not want them.

      While I can’t and won’t defend Egypt’s role in the blockade, I’ll say that Israel actively bombed the Rafah crossing, so even if Egypt was going to do that it’s impossible now.
