Short Link:
A detachment of eight military vehicles from the Israeli Occupation Forces launched a limited incursion at approximately 8:00 am on Thursday 12 July 2012.
The force set out from the eastern border, near the sewage cisterns under construction to the northeast of the Islamic Martyrs cemetery in eastern Jabalya, North Gaza district.
The force advanced to an estimated 400 meters past the borderline - while bulldozers accompanying it began leveling lands that had previously been razed - amidst gunfire in the direction of workers at the sewage cisterns (whose number is estimated at 300) and farmers near the area of the incursion.
The firing compelled them to stop their work and leave the area.
No damages or injuries occurred.
