The Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt opened on Wednesday to allow a number of seriously injured people and foreign nationals to leave Gaza for the first time since the war began on 7 October.
The crossing has been open and shut frequently over the years. Why is it so contentious for Egypt? And where does Egypt stand in the Israel-Palestinian conflict?
The BBC's Amal Saeed in Cairo explains.
Produced and edited by Ellen Tsang.
