Along with the dual nationals from Bolivia and Colombia. Think you can figure out why Israel would be taking steps to be even more evil in this case?

Isn't this Egypt?

Egypt and Israel must agree on each individual person before they're allowed across the crossing. This has been reported on as being the case for quite a while now.

Egypt is a strategic partner of Israel and has been for quite a while.
