Dozens of activists on Tuesday morning blocked crossings to Gaza demanding the release of Gilad Shalit, now in Hamas custody for three years. They blocked the crossings with their vehicles.

The protestors blocked the Rafiach, Karnei and Erez Crossings, pointing out for three years the soldier has been in captivity without any rights, without human rights organizations undertaking his plight. He has not been visited by the International Red Cross or any other organization.
