Apart from the truce that was reached with Israel on Monday amidst Qatar's mediation, Hamas also announced several projects for the good of the Gaza Strip people.
“The Israeli authorities have opened this morning the Kerem Shalom border crossing with the Gaza Strip to import goods to the Palestinian enclave and supply fuel to the only power plant,” Fattouh said.
The crossing was closed on 11 August, except for humanitarian aid, in response to repeated incidents of explosive-laden balloons sent by Hamas across the Israeli border. The balloon attacks also prompted Israel to completely close the Gaza Strip's fishing zone and shell the movement's military infrastructure.
