The Kerem Shalom crossing is one of the three main crossing from Israel into the Gaza Strip (Erez and Karni). I think many people do not realize that the blockade has never been against food, medicine, and other humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza (which is why the flotillas from Turkey and elsewhere are so absurd). Even during the recent war, which may not be over unfortunately, over 3000 trucks with food, water, medicine, fuel, and agricultural material passed into Gaza through the Kerem Shalom crossing. On August 10, when Hamas fired rockets into the crossing, 283 trucks were due to pass through Kerem Shalom into Gaza. The crossing from Egypt at Rafah, by the way, has been closed by the Egyptians more or less since 2007 when Hamas took over Gaza.
