Egyptian Soldier Killed in Firefight with Israeli Forces at Rafah Crossing

An Egyptian soldier was killed in an exchange of fire with Israeli forces at the Rafah crossing on the Egypt-Gaza border. The incident, which left other Egyptians wounded, is under investigation by both countries. Tensions have risen since Israel seized the Rafah crossing earlier this month, straining the 45-year peace between Egypt and Israel. Reports conflict on who fired first, with Egypt denying initiating the exchange.
