      Gaza Crossings Closed in Wake of Shelling


      Minister of Defense Ehud Barak has decided to keep the crossings from Israel to Gaza closed Sunday morning.  This decision comes as a result of Kassam and mortar fire over the weekend.  In the attacks, eight soldiers were wounded, including one in moderate to serious condition.

      The crossings will be closed to commercial traffic and trucks.  The closings are still open for shipments of humanitarian aid.
