Peres Pledges to Expand Israeli-Palestinian Industrial Zone
(Jerusalem Post) - Foreign Minister Shimon Peres toured the Erez and Karni industrial zones near the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, announcing government plans to expand the Erez facility where some 4,000 Palestinians work in Israeli- and Palestinian-owned factories. Clothing factory manager Shosh Levy told Peres the biggest problem is not the Palestinian violence but the closure of the checkpoints between Gaza and the industrial zone.
