Israel will reopen the Karem Abu Salem (Kerem Shalom) crossing on its border with the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, according to a statement from the Israeli agency in charge.
The statement added that aid trucks routed from Egypt were already undergoing inspections there.
Israel closed the Karem Abu Salem crossing on Sunday after a nearby Hamas attack that killed four soldiers, and took over the Rafah crossing on Tuesday, essentially blocking off the entire Gaza Strip.
