A Palestinian youth picks cherry tomatoes at a field in the southern Gaza Strip on March 02, 2011. Israel has granted special approval for the export of a small amount of Palestinian tomatoes from the Gaza Strip to the European market. One truck loaded with tomatoes will be able to leave the impoverished territory over the next two weeks with European coordination. Since 2006, Palestinian farmers are NOT allowed to export their products out of the Gaza strip due to the Israeli siege - Palestine [photo: AP]
