    Egypt wants aid into #Gaza but won't accept large numbers of Palestinians. @FT cites Egyptian official telling European one: “You want us to take 1mn people? Well, I am going to send them to Europe. You care about human rights so much, well you take them.”
    Fear of Gaza exodus looms over Egypt

    Replying to @EduardCousin
    Western diplomat: “The Israelis say exactly the opposite: they say they’re prepared to let out people from #Gaza, and a lot of them, but they’re not prepared to allow humanitarian aid in. And we’re stuck now because of this.” This is scary as hell

    Went to visit the renovated synagogue in #Alexandria last week, with three other Europeans and one Egyptian. However, they did not let the Egyptian in. "Egyptians are not allowed," they said at the gate #Egypt
