Underground Mission


A Palestinian prepares to smuggle fuel into Gaza through a tunnel beneath the Egypt-Gaza border. Israel opened a border crossing with the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip for the first time in two weeks, allowing in a limited amount of humanitarian aid.

Israel had not allowed the UN Relief and Works Agency and other agencies to bring in supplies since Nov. 4, when its troops raided the improverished coastal enclave to destroy what the army described as a tunnel built by militants to kidnap Israeli soldiers.
