Hamas claims Kerem Shalom crossing boss killed
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleAn Israeli strike killed the person in charge of the Gazan side of the Kerem Shalom border crossing and three others on Thursday, Hamas sources say.
Crossing director Bassem Ghaben was killed as Israeli planes targeted the infrastructure, the crossings authority and the health ministry in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip say.
The strike, which cannot be immediately verified independently, comes days after Israel began allowing the crossing to be used for humanitarian aid to enter the Strip.
