Israel partially renewed the supply of gas and fuel to the Gaza Strip through the Kerem Shalom border crossing on Thursday after it was repeatedly set ablaze by Palestinian rioters.
The Border Crossings Authority, in conjunction with the IDF and the District Coordination and Liaison in the Gaza Strip, resumed the transfer of cooking gas and diesel fuel into the strip.
Palestinian rioters sabotaged the crossing, the only one for the transfer of goods from Israel to Gaza, on 3 different occasions over the past two weeks.
In the latest incident on Monday evening, fuel pipelines and the quarry materials depot were damaged. Before that on Friday, a fuel complex and a conveyor belt were vandalized. On the Friday before that, rioters sabotaged gas and fuel pipelines. The damage from the first two attacks alone was estimated at over $9 million.
