Thousands of Gazans protested at the border fence to southern Israel on Monday, 29 Tishrei, with some compromising the fence and tens succeeding in crossing the border into Israel near Kibbutz Zikim. According to the Gaza Health Ministry, 11 Gazans were injured in the violence.

Israeli correspondent Tal Lev-Ram tweeted, “As the days go by, these events that take place during the week, and not only at the Friday celebrations, are becoming more severe, and I understand that the solutions are complex, but the longer it goes on, the price we will pay is going to be heavier”.

In his words, “The perception on our side of minimizing discourse and presenting events from the Israeli side, out of an explanation that publicizing it serves the enemy, is at the very least a serious misconception that belongs to the intellectual worlds that preceded the era of social networks.”

The military correspondent added, “I do not pretend for a moment to understand better than the army commanders what should be done, but it is clear that beyond the violent encounter at the fence, the strategy of Liddell Hart must also play a role in other military operations and in finding other solutions, whether in a response after or before”.

“It’s not only military, the march of return did not end in May, but is has just changed its form.

“In the past six months, Hamas has been waging a campaign against Israel, which is exacting a heavy political cost. This is just as important as the North and demands Israel’s national policy, planning and information,” he concluded.
