Palestinian children sitting in a bus react as they wait with their family to cross into Egypt at the Rafah border crossing between Egypt and the southern Gaza Strip on August 17, 2015. Egypt opened the Rafah border crossing on Monday for four days to allow Palestinians to travel in and out of the Gaza Strip for the first time in around two months, officials said. Gaza, a small impoverished coastal enclave, is under blockade by neighbouring Israel, and Egypt has kept its Rafah crossing largely shut since Cairo's Islamist president was toppled by the army in 2013.
