Israel reopens Gaza crossings as ceasefire holds

Israel has decided to reopen all land crossings for the Gaza Strip and to again allow Palestinian fisherman to work up to 15 nautical miles from the shore, an Israeli official says.

This decision was made in light of a security assessment by top Israeli defense officials following two full days of fighting between Israel and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group.
