Israel announced Oct. 20 that it will increase the number of work permits available to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip from 7,000 to 10,000.
The Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories said in a Facebook post that the decision was made after a security assessment that all of the recent measures announced by Israel depend on stability in the Gaza Strip being maintained.
