GAZA (Dispatches) – The Zionist regime’s authorities announced Tuesday it has reopened a key commercial crossing with the Gaza Strip after destroying a tunnel underneath the crossing.
The Palestinian committee for the entry of the goods into Gaza said in an emailed statement that the entry of food and commercial trucks and the pumping fuel through the Kerem Shalom crossing resumed Tuesday morning.
The occupying regime’s military said it had destroyed a cross-border attack tunnel that ran from Gaza into Israel and Egypt, which was dug by Hamas.
The regime has adopted a single commercial crossing with Gaza since 2012 after four crossings with the Strip have been closed and Erez crossing for humanitarian personnel into Israel.
Kerem Shalom is one of the Gaza Strip's few lifelines to the outer world and the principal entry point for humanitarian aid.
