Egyptians Fire on Gazans

Egyptian Bedouins increasingly frustrated after frenzied Palestinian shoppers trigger food shortages, rising prices; Rafah shopkeepers say price of tea has tripled, many shops remain closed after running out of supplies

The emptying of shop shelves and a block by Cairo on new supplies has prompted thousands of Palestinians to go home since Sunday, with some saying it was now easier to shop in Gaza than in Egypt.

The Palestinians poured tens of millions of pounds into impoverished towns on the Egyptian side of the border when they streamed across to stock up on food, petrol and other goods. Some Egyptian civil servants quit their jobs temporarily to become street vendors or money changers while business flourished.

Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

A lot of Palestinians are much better off financially than many Eyptians.

    She fired my weapon with that stance.
