Pintu gerbang utama terminal sempadan Rafah Mesir

RAFAH - Pihak berkuasa Mesir telah memaklumkan kepada terminal Rafah Palestin berhubung niatnya menutup sempadan Rafah pada hari Rabu akan datang bagi meraikan pilihanraya Presiden Mesir yang bermula pada 23 Mei 2012.

Berhubung makluman, Pengarah Jabatan Pengurusan Sempadan di sebelah Rafah Palestin, Maher Abu Sabhah menyatakan dalam kenyataan khas kepada agensi berita SAFAbahawa Mesir telah memaklumkan secara rasmi mengenai penutupan sempadan Rafah pada hari Rabu berikutan berlangsungnya pilihanraya Presiden Mesir dan dibuka semula seperti biasa dari dua arah(Rafah Gaza-Rafah Mesir) pada hari Khamis.

Tambahan lagi, pilihanraya Presiden pusingan pertama berlangsung pada 23 dan 24 Mei 2012.

Demikian itu, Abu Sabhah berkata, penutupan sempadan tidak akan memberikan kesan sampingan kepada proses keluar masuk kerana tiada sebarang pendaftaran dilakukan untuk hari tersebut, demikian itu telah mengetahui lebih awal mengenai tarikh pilihanraya dan sesiapapun tidak dibenarkan mendaftar pada hari berkenaan bagi mengelakkan orang awam berpusu-pusu ke kaunter pertanyaan.

Denmark moves against illegal settlement produce with new labelling scheme

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (Ma'an) -- Denmark is set to introduce a labeling system to denote products made in Israeli settlements, Danish media said Friday.

"This is a move that will clearly show consumers that this produce has been produced under conditions that not only the Danish government, but also the European governments have rejected," Danish Foreign Minister Villy Sovndal was quoted as saying by Danish online news-site Politken. 

"Then it is up to consumers whether they are prepared to buy the produce," he added.

The Danish FM said that stricter controls and labeling of settlement produce should be seen as part of the European Union's support for a two state solution.

Enforcing controls on settlement produce also shows the Palestinians that the world is against illegal settlement building.

The move targets illegal settlements and not Israel, the Danish FM added
