Israel's siege of Gaza set to be lifted - 21 Jun 08  
 

A truce between Israel and Hamas has entered its third day. If the day closes with the ceasefire still intact, Israel says it will begin easing its year-long blockade on the Gaza Strip.

For ordinary Palestinians in the territory, this could mean finally being able to buy furniture and other non-essential goods, which have seen sharp price rises due to the heavy restrictions.

Ayman Mohyeldin reports.
