State to accept fewer Hamas medical requests after Goldin family petition
Israeli authorities reopened on Tuesday the commercial border crossing with Gaza known as Karm Abu Salem (Kerem Shalom), to the east of Rafah in the south of the Gaza Strip, after closing it for two days under security pretexts.
The Israeli military said Sunday it destroyed a border-crossing attack tunnel built by the Gaza-based terrorist organization Hamas, the third in recent months, that stretched from the Gaza Strip through Israel and into Egypt, the AP reported Sunday.
The Israeli military closed its initial probe into Mr Thuraya's death after only a day, saying its forces had fired at protesters but not directly at the wheelchair-bound man.
A petition by Hadar Goldin's family to the High Court of Justice has led the state to take a tougher stance regarding requests by Hamas operatives and their relatives to enter Israel for medical needs.
As can be seen in a picture posted recently on Palestinian social media, the IDF used concrete to destroy a Hamas terror tunnel on Saturday. Conricus said this did not mark "more of the same" since it involved the most advanced technological means Israel has deployed.
"By the end of 2018, we will have eliminated all of Hamas's attack tunnels". "We must make Hamas understand that holding Israeli soldiers hostage is not an asset, but a burden".

ISIS 'fanatic plotted attacks on Big Ben and Heathrow', trial hears
Mark Heywood QC, prosecuting, said: "He said Isis was good and if you join you would die as a martyr". Three men he met through a London mosque and who are accused of helping him also deny the charges.
"(We) now hold a method, an organized system to destroy terror tunnels dug into Israel", he said in an early morning briefing to reporters. The demolition of a tunnel belonging to the Islamic Jihad militant group in October killed a dozen militants.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who was on a state visit to India, also lauded on Sunday the IDF's operations. "The message to Gaza's leadership and residents is clear - invest in the sanctity of life and not these burial tunnels", he said. The picture shows a long convoy of concrete mixers standing beside the entrance to the tunnel at the Kerem Shalom crossing.
Home to almost two million Palestinians, the Gaza Strip has been reeling under a crippling siege by Israel since 2007.
"It was a terror tunnel created to strike strategic Israel assets", he said.
"We have not encountered a tunnel like this before", said Brig. The military released photos and video of a wide tunnel with concrete paneled walls.
