Only reunification of Gaza and the West Bank under the PA can pave way for progress towards peace, Robert Sherry says.
The ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas is eroding, UN Middle East Peace Coordinator Robert Serry said in a press statement on Wednesday.
"I am worried we are seeing more and more signs that the understanding on a ceasefire reached in November 2012 is eroding in both of its main requirements – the end of all hostilities and the opening of the crossings for people and goods," Serry said. The Egyptian-mediated agreement came on the heels of the eight-day 2012 Operation Pillar of Defense in which more than a 100 Palestinians and six Israelis were killed. "During the past two months, we have seen more rockets being fired at Israel, border incidents, and Israeli retaliatory operations causing death or injury to civilians.
The United Nations condemns the rise in violence, and all parties must act in accordance with international law," Serry noted. Serry asserted that "only the reunification of Gaza and the West Bank under the legitimate Palestinian Authority, based on the PLO commitments, can pave the way to a durable solution for Gaza, as part of political progress towards peace."
At the same time, Serry decried the deteriorating social and economic conditions in the Gaza Strip as a result of continued closures of border crossings. UN construction work in the Strip has suffered delays as a result of the closures, and over 20 projects remain stalled since November 2013. "The closure of illegal tunnels has not been turned into an opportunity to increase the entry of construction material through legal crossings," Serry said. "I sincerely hope that the Israeli authorities will fully adhere to their commitment to reopen Gaza for construction materials for UN projects," he added.
The Special UN coordinator did note the recent decision to allow 1,000 tons of cement and other construction materials for flood relief into Gaza as a positive step. In 2010, Israel eased the restrictions to allow imports for internationally supervised projects. But in October of last year, it halted the entry of all construction materials after discovering a concrete-lined tunnel along the border.
Israel said the tunnel was to be used by militants for attacks and abductions of Israelis – a claim that Palestinian armed groups later confirmed.

Two youths were arrested during the raid on Obaidiya that came as part of Israeli arrest campaign waged on the village for the past month unabated.
IOF soldiers also arrested Nasr Abu Hadid, a senior member of the Islamic students bloc in Al-Khalil University, after searching and ransacking his family home. Abu Hadid was released from Israeli jails only a few months ago.
IOF soldiers arrested Bilal Al-Rejoub from Dura town near Al-Khalil at dawn Tuesday after searching his home and terrorizing women and children inside it.

Palestinian chief negotiator Saeb Erekat expected that Israel would launch an offensive against Gaza to frustrate Kerry’s peace plan with the Palestinian Authority. Erekat said in a statement to Chinese news agency “Xinhua” that Israeli prime minister ordered to intensify raids into al-Aqsa Mosque compound to frustrate Kerry’s peace plan.
“If Netanyahu believes that Kerry’s plan is an internationally accepted plan on the basis of international law, he will stage a war against Gaza to fail it” Erekat added.
Erekat described the recent Israeli threats against Gaza as dangerous, calling the international community to draw attention to the besieged territory and what may happen to it.
Regarding Kerry’s framework expected to be announced, Erekat said it has yet to come out and that the Palestinian side is committed to his positions on the peace process based on the international law.
Since the late December 2013, Israeli military has escalated its operations against Gaza, carrying out several airstrikes and assassinations which killed six Palestinians and injured dozens of citizens.
Israeli senior officials repeatedly threatened to attack Gaza in recent days.

Israeli airstrikes rocked northern Gaza City and al-Nuseirat refugee early Tuesday, causing damages, security sources and locals said.
Three air-to-surface missiles struck the Abu Jarad militant base in Gaza City, causing a fire to break out, the sources said.
Heavy damages, but no injuries, were reported.
Additionally, Israeli warplanes fired missiles at an open area near Gaza's power plant north of al-Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.
Israel's army said in a statement that a rocket fired from Gaza late Monday landed in an open area in southern Israel.
It caused no damages or injuries, according to Israeli news site Ynet.
The army statement said that "in retaliation the IAF targeted an underground rocket launcher in the central Gaza Strip and a terror site in the northern Gaza Strip."
"Direct hits were confirmed," the statement said.
"The IDF targeted sites that were part of the infrastructure utilized to terrorize Israel and its civilians," the statement quoted an IDF spokesman as saying.
"We will continue to act against the threats originating from Hamas' Gaza Strip."
Recent weeks have witnessed an increase in tensions on the Gaza Strip, as Israeli forces have repeatedly opened fire on Palestinian protests near the border and launched a number of airstrikes.
Israeli forces killed six Palestinians and injured 41 in attacks on Gaza in January, Gaza's Ministry of Health spokesman Ashraf al-Qidra said in early February.
Palestinian militants, meanwhile, have fired dozens of rockets toward Israel, all of which have all landed in unpopulated areas with no injuries reported.
The Gaza Strip government is under Hamas control. While Hamas itself does not routinely fire rockets, Israel says it holds the group, which seized power in Gaza in 2007, responsible for such attacks.
Hamas and Israel have maintained a fragile ceasefire since November 2012, when Israeli forces launched a major assault that killed around 170 Palestinians.
Israeli warplanes launch raids on Gaza
Israeli warplanes launched two raids on a deserted area and a security position in central Gaza Strip at dawn Tuesday. The PIC reporter in the area said that the first raid targeted Abu Jarad security position to the north of Nuseirat refugee camp and the second targeted an abandoned area near the power station.
He noted that the raids were coupled with intensified flights of warplanes over various areas in the besieged enclave.
The two raids follow Israeli claims that rockets from Gaza slammed into a vacant area in the western Negev. The Israeli army retaliates to any rocket fired from Gaza.
Senior Israeli officials had threatened over the past few days to launch a war on Gaza in the event rockets continued to slam into southern Israeli areas from the enclave.
