The Karm Abu Salem crossing was closed on Saturday when Israel and the United States began striking Iran.
The decision to reopen it was made "in accordance with a security assessment," said COGAT, the Israeli defence ministry body responsible for civil affairs in the Palestinian territories.
It came amid calls from the UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres to reopen Gaza border crossings which had already a heavy human impact.
Karm Abou Salem crossing, located in Israel, is under a total control of the Israeli army.
Rafah crossing, the only gateway for Gazans to the outside world that does not pass through Israel, had reopened for the movement of people on 2 February, nearly two years after Israeli forces seized control of it during Tel Aviv's genocidal war on Gaza.
