Attack on Israeli military post leads to closing of Gaza-Egypt border

The Gaza-Egypt border was closed to passage on Sunday after Palestinian militants attacked an Israeli military post, Palestinian officials said.

The European observers who oversee the Rafah international border informed the Palestinians they would not be opening the border Sunday because they cannot go into Gaza from Kerem Shalom, the crossing used by the monitors to get from Israel to Gaza, Palestinian officials said.

The Rafah border, Gaza's only gateway to the world, has been closed for much of the past four days due to an Israeli security alert that Palestinian militants were planning an attack in the area.
