Protesting Israeli settlers breach checkpoint to enter Gaza
A small group of Israeli protesters briefly entered the Gaza Strip via the Erez border crossing in late February. A few days before this illegal incursion, several videos appeared online showing a group of Israeli farmers trying to drive into Gaza on their tractors. These protesters want to restore Israeli settlements in Gaza, 19 years after Israel's 2005 disengagement from the zone, when the government dismantled 21 settlements that had been home to some 8,000 Israelis.
