Egypt should open their border with Gaza. Its none of Israel business. Egyptians generals need to grow a pair.
I appreciate your feeling, but there is a deeper problem here. Please allow me to elaborate, you see the moment the Egyptian border is opened there will be Palestinians who will want to evacuate Gaza and the moment they do, they will lose the right to Return to Gaza by the Israeli Government.

2. The Israel Government continues to illegally forcible evacuate the sick, injured and those sheltering in hospitals in the North of Gaza. This is a complete contravention of
Article 18* of the Geneva Convention
[Which is a WAR CRIME]. This is despite all these hospitals being run by the United Nations and affiliated NGOs, all the hospitals have signed the Humanitarian Charter and shared a copy of this with the Israeli Government, all hospitals have shared their coordinates with the Israeli government to fulfil their responsibilities under article 38 of the Geneva convention.
Article 18 - Wounded and sick III. Protection of hospitals
Civilian hospitals organized to give care to the wounded and sick, the infirm and maternity cases, may in no circumstances be the object of attack, but shall at all times be respected and protected by the Parties to the conflict.

For those western people on PDF wondering why the northern hospitals don't evacuate, if they shut down operations there will only be 1500 beds to service 2 Million people!
The Israeli Government's indiscriminate targeting of civilian infrastructure in this war is unlike anything seen in the past 16 years. This is all desgined to make the Gaza strip a hostile place for the Palestinian people to remain, forcing them further southwards until they eventually flee into the Sinai. And if you don't believe me, I want to share this Damage assessment map
(Dated 20th October 2023).
As you will see that the largest civilian settlements, towns, cities have been reduced to charred rubble. Forcing the Palestinian people further and further south towards Khan Younis and the two border crossings with Egypt.
More people than the entire population of Sargodha, 705,000 Palestinians to be exact are forced to live cramped in 205 square kilometres penned in like animals, without the basic necessities needed for human survival.
And if people want to know what the conditions are like for Palestinians living in Khan Younis... Well here LOOK!
If these images of Gazan's forced from their home and forced to live in tents without water, food, sanitation, medical care, hygiene or sanitation under the spectre of daily bombing doesn't shake you to your soul and anger you, well then perhaps this will motivate you...

Palestinian people are the only people who are already refugees and forced to become displaced again another violation of International law [Article 49 of the Geneva Convention] prevents an occupying power [Israel] from forcibly evicting and displacing people from their place of residence:
