North Sinai Governor: All Palestinians have right to visit Gaza

Mabrouk explained that travelers to and from the Gaza Strip had a ten-hour daily access to the border crossing from 8 am to 6 pm, with the exception of Saturdays. He told Al-Masry Al-Youm that men between the ages of 18 and 40 are required to obtain a visa before entering into Egypt.
