Philadelphi Corridor

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Philadelphi Corridor, also called Philadelphi Route, is the Israeli name for a narrow strip of land, about 100 metres wide and 14 km (8.7 miles) long, along the border between the Gaza Strip and Egypt.[1]

IDF soldiers allegedly uncover a tunnel near the Philadelphi Route shortly before the unilateral disengagement.
The Philadelphi Route separates Egyptian Sinai from the Gaza Strip, stretching north-northwest from Kerem Shalom to the Mediterranean Sea
