APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Gaza – 29 June 2021. Palestinians work at Post Office in Gaza City, after a 50-day closure because of the military conflict between the Israeli army and the Palestinian armed factions.
STORYLINE
Israeli authorities have allowed the entry of postal parcels and passports into Gaza, after a 50-day closure because of the military conflict between the Israeli army and the Palestinian armed factions in Gaza.
A bout 3,000 Palestinian passports have arrived in Gaza since Monday.
This amount is relatively large compared to what we received in normal times that did not exceed 300 passports per day.
The transfer of passports between Gaza and the West Bank is a humanitarian matter, and it is important that it is kept at bay from the political situation because it will end up affecting Palestinian citizens in the Gaza Strip.
Other restrictions by Israel remain in place. They include restrictions on the zone for Gazan fishermen, a limit on the number of medical patients allowed to get treatment in Israel or the West Bank, and a ban on raw materials for Gazan industries.
Egypt brokered the cease-fire that went into effect on May 21, ending a round of heaviest fighting between Israel and Hamas since 2014.
