Gaza City - MENA
Large quantities of Israeli settlement products that were en route to the Gaza strip via Karam Abu Salem crossing were seized by the Palestinian Economy Ministry on Friday.
The products include 204 multi-Lock iron doors manufactured by the Israeli Barkan settlement, the Palestinian Ministry said in a statement.
The Ministry rejects using the crossing for smuggling Israeli settlement products into the enclave, the statement added.
The Israeli Barkan settlement, set up in Salfit city in north-west of the West Bank, is one of the largest Israeli industrial settlements on the occupied Palestinian territories and has more than 2,000 factory.
Karm Abu Salem is the only commercial crossing through which the Israeli authorities allow the entry of commodities into Gaza.
