Entering Israel for Gazan workers and merchants through the Erez Crossing will not be permitted.
Israeli authorities announced that the Erez crossing between Israel and Gaza will remain closed on Sunday.
This decision came after three rockets were sent from Gaza to southern Israel on Friday night. The rocket fire comes as tensions surrounding the Al-Aqsa mosque as tens of Palestinians have been injured and hundreds arrested due to Israeli forces’ storming at Al-Aqsa mosque.
Palestinian medics said: Today morning, at least 130 Palestinians were injured and tens were arrested when Israeli forces stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque Friday morning.

Clashes between Palestinians and Israeli forces at Al-Aqsa mosque have sparked fears over it escalating between Israel and Movements in the Gaza Strip.
The escalating unrest prompted concern at the United Nations, which on Thursday demanded a probe into the Israeli police actions.
Ravina Shamdasani, spokeswoman for the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights said “The use of force by Israeli forces resulting in tens of injuries among worshippers and staff inside the Al-Aqsa mosque compound must be promptly, impartially, independently and transparently investigated.”
