（Xinhua）  08:29, July 11, 2013  

Palestinian passengers wait outside the departure lounge at Rafah crossing point with Egypt in the southern Gaza Strip on July 10, 2013. Egypt reopened the main crossing point of the Gaza Strip temporarily after six days of consecutive closure. Ghazi Hamad, Hamas's deputy foreign minister, said the crossing would remain open for a few hours on Wednesday so Palestinians could return and so foreigners, patients due to receive medical treatment in Cairo and Palestinians with residency permits in third countries could leave the Gaza Strip.
