Egypt Prepares To Refurbish Gaza Terminal

CAIRO [MENL] -- Egypt, bolstered by U.S. aid, has launched a project to
refurbish its border terminal with the Gaza Strip.
Officials said the regime of President Hosni Mubarak has agreed to begin
the refurbishing of the Rafah border terminal, mostly closed since 2006.
They said the terminal, heavily damaged in Palestinian riots in 2008, would
be modernized, with facilities to inspect equipment and travelers.
