Egypt puts concrete wall on Gaza border

El-Arish, Egypt -- Egypt is building a 10-foot-high concrete wall along its border with Gaza to prevent any new breaches after Palestinian militants blasted through the barrier in January to escape a blockade of their territory, an official said. The new wall replaces a mixed barbed-wire, iron and concrete barrier which was breached in several places when militants blew it open with explosives (Snip) Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians flooded across the open border unchecked for 12 days before Egypt managed to reseal it.
