Ya'alon orders Gaza crossing closed after rocket fire

Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon ordered the Kerem Shalom Crossing to Gaza be closed down for transition of goods because of Thursday morning's rocket fire toward Sderot.

Ya'alon decided that the Erez Crossing will also function in a reduced capacity for humanitarian needs alone. The decision to reopen the crossings will be made following a situation report and according to security considerations. (Yoav Zitun)
