Did you read the article? It makes claims about "Cairo" and "Egypt" saying something, never actually quoting any entity from the Egyptian government on the reason the pass is not operational. The foreign minister says merely that there is "an urgent need", whatever the hell that means. The writers very conveniently leave out any reliable quotations for the single most contentious part of the entire piece. If anybody credible actually believed that Israel bombed this crossing, the authors would have no trouble finding a quote saying so.

    The crossing been bombed 3 times? There is literally video. The fact that Israel bombed the crossing is not in dispute anywhere. https://youtu.be/YlfzCy5752M?si=fa8y8bPB9n-4b-rO

    Ah yes, 90 second long video by Al Jazeera (known for posting literal Holocaust denial on their social media) with sources as reputable as... videos from random Facebook and TikTok pages...

    Christ the state of source evaluation these days.

    The closest I can find from a source without a history of public Holocaust denial is that essentially Egypt closed it after nearby strikes, and is refusing to open it until there are no strikes even somewhat nearby. A pretty far cry from the "made inoperable" nonsense in this dumpster fire of an article
