Possibility - Israel - Gaza might export goods through El Arish
TEL AVIV, Israel -UPI -May 21, 2006: -- Egyptian leaders are said to have reacted favorably to a proposal that they let Palestinians export their goods through the El Arish airport... Gaza exports strawberries, tomatoes and flowers between October and January. Its produce usually comes out shortly before that of Spain and Egypt, giving its growers an advantage... Goods that make it through the checks are then trucked to Ben Gurion airport, near Tel Aviv, and go through another security check, according to Nehama Ronen, chairwoman of the board of directors of Maman, which handles cargo exports... The Palestinians had an international airport near Rafah, but its runway was badly damaged during the intifada and Israel has prevented them from reopening it...
