U.S. has been told Kerem Shalom crossing will open on Wednesday, White House says

The U.S. has been told that the Karem Shalom crossing into Gaza will re-open on Wednesday, White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre said on Tuesday.

U.N. and other international aid agencies said the closing of the two crossings into southern Gaza - Rafah and Israeli-controlled Kerem Shalom - had virtually cut the enclave off from outside aid and very few stores were available inside.
