You got to do what you have to do look like in Gaza
Although the borders between Egypt and Gaza are closed, leaving the besieged Palestinian enclave is still possible ― but only if you have enough money.
Palestinians in the Gaza Strip have always been able to enter Egypt via the Rafah crossing if they had the right documents, connections and cash.
"For years, a network of Egypt and Gaza-based travel agents and fixers have offered fast-tracked passages through Rafah for a price, ranging from several hundred to several thousand dollars," the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project, or OCCRP, wrote in late January.
The cost of the exit process, colloquially known as "coordination," used to be anywhere from $350 to $600 (about €320 to €550). But "the deeper the desperation to leave, the better the business," the OCCRP, an international investigative reporting organization, noted.
