GAZA CITY (Ma'an) -- Israeli authorities reopened Gaza's sole goods crossing on Sunday following a week-long closure as Israel used the Kerem Shalom terminal for a prisoner exchange deal with Hamas.
Palestinian Authority crossings official Raed Fattouh said Israeli officials cleared between 260 and 270 trucks to cross into Gaza from Israel through the southern crossing on Sunday, after the prisoner swap and a Jewish holiday had caused its closure a week prior.
Fourteen trucks of cement and steel, and 44 trucks of gravel for UN projects will pass, in addition to a truck carrying wooden pillars for Gaza's energy authority, Fattouh said. more
