A Palestinian carry a cement sacks smuggled from Egypt tunnel into Rafah the southern Gaza Strip on July 18, 2009. Palestinian merchants are dependent on goods smuggled through tunnels under the land between Egypt and Gaza due to the closure of the crossings of the Gaza Strip and Israel does not allow the entry of construction materials, cement and wood and iron from the Gaza Strip crossings.
