Khudari said in a press statement on Tuesday that the closure of the Karm Abu Salem crossing, for the sixth consecutive day, is causing the traders and businessmen severe financial losses.
He pointed out that the closure of the crossings have negatively affected the implementation of the different projects in the Gaza Strip, adding that holding the basic and agricultural materials for long time may damage them.
The MP has emphasized the need to open the crossings as it is a natural right for the residents, stressing that their closure is illegal, contrary to the international norms and represents a form of collective punishment.
The head of the Popular Committee against the Siege has also noted that the continuation of restricting the movement of fishermen and reducing the area in which they are allowed to fish has been causing them huge losses.
