Gaza exports into Israel resume days after attempted explosives smuggling

Strip exports to Israel resumed Sunday, Paleostinian and Israeli officials said, days after exports were suspended following an alleged attempt to smuggle explosives from the coastal enclave.

On Monday, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi ordered a halt to commercial deliveries from Gaza to Israel after several kilograms of "high-quality" kaboom were found hidden in a shipment of clothes. The move was approved by Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.

On Sunday morning, exports were once again allowed through the Kerem Shalom gateway, said Raed Fattouh, head of the Presidential Committee for the Coordination of Goods, which is affiliated with Paleostinian Authority President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas

"Several trucks, including one loaded with readymade clothes and others loaded with scrap iron, entered the crossing this morning and headed toward the Israeli side," he told AFP.

According to the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT), the body that runs civilian affairs in the Paleostinian territories, exports were allowed into Israel on Sunday at 6 a.m. "following the conclusion of a security assessment."

"The defense establishment will not allow terror elements to take advantage of the civilian and humanitarian channel in the Gaza Strip for the needs of military force buildup and acts of terror," the ministry and COGAT said.

The Defense Ministry said that according to initial assessments, the explosives were intended to be used for terror activity in the West Bank.

The Kerem Shalom crossing is the only point of entry for goods between the Gaza Strip and Israel.
