The illegal Zionist entity shuts down the Gaza Strip’s border crossing that hosts most imports into the Tel Aviv-besieged territory as a punitive measure against alleged launches of “incendiary balloons” from the Palestinian enclave towards the occupied territories.
The Karam Abu Salem Crossing was closed on Tuesday after at least four rounds of aerial and ground attacks against the territory under the same pretext.
Before closing the terminal, the regime claimed that more than 30 fires had erupted across Gaza’s border with the occupied territories as a result of the alleged balloon launch.
Palestinian officials said the closure in particular affected construction materials.
Tel Aviv besieged Gaza in 2007 and ever since the enclave has been receiving its bare essentials through Karam Abu Salem as well as two other crossings, including one with Egypt, which is being strictly controlled by Cairo.
Last Monday, the regime launched a set of airstrikes on Gaza, accusing Hamas of flying fire balloons towards the occupied territories.
The regime repeated the strikes on Thursday and this Monday. The aerial bombardments were intervened by a round of tank fire targeting the territory on Sunday
