Monitoring group releases evidence of work that appears intended to house Palestinians in event of Israeli assault on city
Egypt has begun building an enclosed area, ringed with high concrete walls, along its border with Gaza that appears intended to house Palestinians fleeing a threatened Israeli assault on the southern city of Rafah.
Photos and videos released by the Sinai Foundation for Human Rights (SFHR), a monitoring group, show workers using heavy machinery erecting concrete barriers and security towers around a strip of land on the Egyptian side of the Rafah crossing.
