Egyptian authorities deny entry to a delegation of European doctors, who have arrived to offer help to the residents of Gaza, into the Palestinian strip, a coordinator of Palestinian doctors in Europe said Saturday.
"The delegation consists of anesthetists, surgeons and disaster specialists," Abdeen Fayez added in a statement.
However, he did not mention the reasons for preventing the members of the medical delegation from entering the Gaza Strip from Rafah crossing on the border between Egypt and the coastal Palestinian enclave, which has been under a Zionist blockade since 2006.
Fayez called on Egyptian authorities to let the members of the delegation to enter Gaza to offer help to its residents, while the Zionist military continues to pound the strip since Monday.
At least 165 Gazans, mostly civilians, have been killed and hundreds injured since Monday in a series of Zionist airstrikes.
Egypt has been tightening its control on the border crossing with Gaza for several months now.
