After his detention for about one month the Israeli occupation authorities on Wednesday released a 60-year-old businessman from the Gaza Strip.
When he arrived at the crossing a month ago the businessman Hassan Abu Rashed had been kidnapped by Israeli soldiers at Beit Hanoun (Erez) with no reason. He was in possession of a travel permit.
As part of its inhumane blockade on Gaza Israel deliberately imposes travel restrictions on Gazan businessmen and merchants and arrests several of them every month before releasing them later.
