Security source denies reports of another soldier's death in Rafah incident

CAIRO - 28 May 2024: A security source has stated that there is no truth to the circulated rumors on social media regarding the death of another soldier in the Rafah border incident.

Security sources, in exclusive statements to Al-Youm7, revealed that the border strip incident is something Egypt had warned about for months. The Israeli attack on the Philadelphia Axis creates field and psychological conditions that are difficult to control and are prone to escalation.

The sources emphasized Egypt's warnings about the repercussions of Israeli military operations at the Philadelphia Axis and its caution against compromising the security and safety of Egyptian security personnel deployed along the borders.

They pointed out that the international community must bear responsibility for the danger of escalating security situations along the Egyptian borders with Gaza and the Philadelphia Axis, not only concerning border security but also regarding humanitarian aid flow routes.
