Egyptian networks, coverage may only reach the outskirts of Khan Yunis. He
affirmed that the best solution is to restart the Palestinian networks with the
necessary repairs and secure safe paths for the communication crews.

International Telecommunication Union informed them that there has been a slight progress
regarding the entry of Thuraya mobile networks international institutions
working in the sector.
He pointed out that work on this matter has
been ongoing for more than 20 days with no progress on the ground. In case the
devices enter, they will be used at specific points for international
institutions.
