Egypt· RafaḩLewis Hamilton Calls for Gaza Border Opening
Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton has urged Israel to open the Rafah border crossing with Egypt and expressed distress over the plight of children evacuated from Gaza.
Background
The Gaza Strip, a Palestinian territory, has been under an Israeli and Egyptian blockade since 2007.

The Rafah crossing is the only exit from Gaza not controlled by Israel.
