Palestine Today reports that the first shipment of 3,300 tons of Turkish cement will reach the Gaza Strip by Monday.

This is reinforced cement that is stronger than what Gaza has been getting, and it is what UN agencies in Gaza require for their structures.

An average of two ships a week are expected to be coming from Turkey with similar amounts. The ships are offloaded in Ashdod and then would travel to Gaza by truck.

Which means that Israel and Turkey are cooperating in helping Gazans build. One of those stories that you won't see mentioned anywhere.

The article also claimed that the amount of cement needed to repair damaged buildings in Gaza is more than Israeli firms can provide on their own.

A few days ago there were reports that Israel had halted shipments of cement to Gaza after discovering issues with the distribution system, apparently discovering that thousands of people who applied to receive cement were buying more than they were supposed to, with their names being input multiple times into the systems that keep track of it. It sounds like that issue has been solved. (COGAT did not respond to my request for a comment.)


We are doing everything we can to fight for Israel with hard work, research and - above all - the truth. I could sure use your help.

Elder of Ziyon - حـكـيـم صـهـيـون



This blog may be a labor of love for me, but it takes a lot of effort, time and money. For over 19 years and 40,000 articles I have been providing accurate, original news that would have remained unnoticed. I've written hundreds of scoops and sometimes my reporting ends up making a real difference. I appreciate any donations you can give to keep this blog going.
