Report: Reuters cameraman killed in Gaza<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Carter says request to enter Gaza turned down<\/font><\/p>\n

RAMALLAH, West Bank, April 15 (Reuters<\/a>)<\/strong> – Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, shunned by Israeli leaders over his plans to meet Hamas, said on Tuesday he sought permission to enter the Islamist-ruled Gaza Strip but was turned down.<\/p>\n

Carter did not single out Israel by name for having turned down his request to visit Gaza, which Hamas seized in June after routing Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’s secular Fatah faction.<\/p>\n

All of the border crossings between Israel and Gaza are controlled by the Jewish state. Egyptian forces are stationed at Gaza’s southern border, which is largely closed.<\/p>\n

“I haven’t been able to get permission to go into Gaza. I would like to. I asked for permission. But I was turned down. But maybe we can find a way to circumvent that. I don’t know yet,” Carter said after meeting diplomats in the West Bank city of Ramallah.<\/p>\n
