Kerem Shalom closed because of Gaza attacks on Israel

Ma'an reports:

For a second day in row, Israel closed Gaza’s commercial terminal the Kerem Shalom crossing.

Israeli defense minister Moshe Yalon gave orders to close the crossing Tuesday after an Israeli worker was shot dead by a Palestinian sniper while fixing the border fence in northern Gaza Strip.

What Ma'an doesn't say is that a rocket was also fired from Gaza yesterday.

What no one is reporting is that Egypt allowed 113 trucks of building materials into Gaza through Rafah. It is unclear if these are meant for Qatari projects or for others.

An unnamed official told Palestine Press Agency that he expected Hamas to close the power plant today in order to pressure Israel to re-open Kerem Shalom.
