Blockading Gaza

From Ma'an
'Israel plans to impose a 500-meter buffer zone along its border with the Gaza Strip, a senior Israeli military official said Sunday.

Israeli residents living in neighborhoods close to the Gaza border have received eviction notices.
Homeowners who received eviction orders demonstrated against the decision and burned tires in protest.

Army bulldozers have also uprooted trees in the border area.

The army has demolished 13 homes in the neighborhood where tunnel entrances were found.

An Israeli military official told Ma'an that most cross-border tunnels with entrances in fields or open areas had been destroyed in a security campaign to stop smuggling. He said it was more difficult to locate tunnels that opened into houses. '

Quick alert the United Nations, get the BBC on the case.

Oh hold on, the above is not quite the text of the article in Ma'an. Here's the actual text

'Egypt plans to impose a 500-meter buffer zone along its border with the Gaza Strip, a senior Egyptian military official said Sunday.

Egyptian residents living in Saladin, al-Barahmeh, Canada, Brazil, al-Sarsouriya and other neighborhoods close to the Gaza border have received eviction notices.

Homeowners who received eviction orders demonstrated against the decision and burned tires in protest.

It's not Israel, it's Egypt; so don't bother the United Nations, let the BBC continue to blacken Israel's name.
