Egyptian authorities said the guards who were manning the Palestinian side of the border had abandoned their posts. Aid workers and drivers banged on the gate to protest the closure, but the gate remained shut. Watch "absurd" situation at border crossing »

Again, note that the Palestinian border control people had been removed.

Egypt has repeatedly stated that they allow for crossing into Gaza of medication only and crossing the border out of Gaza into Egypt for casualties in need of hospital treatment only.

The Hamas allows for none of that because maximizing the suffering in Gaza at their over filled hospitals being quite useful in their propaganda war.
