Israel Lifts Gaza Ban on Journalists, Aid Workers
-------------------------------------------------



Meanwhile, Israel says it will allow foreign journalists and aid workers
to enter the Gaza Strip for the first time in four weeks. Israel has
barred reporters from Gaza since November 4th. Meanwhile, banks across
the Gaza Strip have closed their doors because of a shortage of bank
notes caused by the Israeli blockade.
