Islamic Jihad: Closing Gaza crossing a ‘declaration of war’
The Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group says Israel’s decision to close the Kerem Shalom crossing in response to ongoing attacks from Gaza is a “declaration of war.”
“Tightening the siege will only exacerbate the ongoing conflict with Israel,” the group says. “This is proof of the occupation’s failure to deal with the March of Return.”
