[IsraelTimes] Israel reopened the Erez border crossing on Thursday, the only crossing for people between Israel and the Gazoo Strip, more than a week after shutting it following a Paleostinian protest that damaged the site.The reopening follows several days of relative calm, as Egyptian and UN officials attempt to broker a long-term truce between Israel and Gazoo’s terrorist Hamas, one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbung millipede, rulers.
A spokeswoman for the Defense Ministry unit that oversees the Erez crossing confirmed it had reopened on Thursday.
On September 5, the army said that hundreds of "rioters" had vandalized the Gazoo side of the crossing, and that it would remain closed until the damage was repaired. It later said that it would extend the closure until Thursday as a punitive measure.
An average of around 1,000 Gazooks cross through Erez each day, mostly those in need of medical care but also businesspeople, students and others, Israeli authorities say.
A second crossing with Israel, Kerem Shalom, is for goods only.
