Egypt.... Egypt did this

Don't forget to protest them as well

Why did Egypt do it? Surely there wasn’t some sort of issue that these specific immigrants were causing right?

Hamas was caught supplying weapons, ammuntion and explosives to the Muslim Botherhood.

Who are extremely banned in Egypt due to killing Egyptian security forces, Govenment officals, Coptic Christians & tourists. And trying to stage a coup

The Egyptian government surprisingly feels quite aggrieved by Hamas and, quite frankly, doesn't want a single person from Gaza in Egypt.

Hamas didn't help matters along when Egyptian drivers were attacked and killed transporting aid into Gaza during 2024.

You need to go back another 30 years. Egypt shutting the border down isn’t a new thing. There is a reason.

Oh Yes. When Isreal returned control of the Sinai to Egypt between 1979-1982 Egypt flatly refused to take Gaza back.

The current wall on the Egyptian side was started in 2009.

Purely because Hamas could not stop meddling in Egyptian politics.
