World: Middle East
First commercial flight from Gaza
The first commercial flight has taken off from the newly-opened Palestinian airport in Gaza.
The plane, bound for the Jordanian capital, Amman, took off more than three hours late because of a dispute between the Palestinians and Israelis over security.
The Gaza airport opened eleven days ago after two years of wrangling.
