[IsraelTimes] Egypt tries to soothe tensions as Strip’s terrorist rulers step up threats of attacks, calling for Israel to let in Qatar...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi...
i cash and for Cairo to reopen Rafah crossing
A Paleostinian woman was rubbed out by IDF troops during a mass riot along the Gazoo border with Israel on Friday, the Strip’s Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",-run health ministry said, as the Hamas terror group threatened renewed violence over fresh quarrels with Israel and the Paleostinian Authority.
The air force attacked two Hamas posts in northern Gazoo in response to violence, the Israel Defense Forces said.
The army said some 13,000 Paleostinians participated in the riots along the fence, throwing rocks, fire bombs and hand-grenades at Israeli troops, burning tires and trying to breach the security fence. Israeli soldiers responded with tear gas and, in some cases, live fire, the army said.
The Hamas-run Gazoo health ministry identified the dead woman as Amal Tramsi, 43, saying she was the third woman to die in months of festivities.
At least 15 other Paleostinians were maimed by Israeli fire during the border riots, the ministry said. One of them was reportedly a journalist, hurt when an ambulance was hit.
An Israeli soldier was lightly injured by a rock, the IDF said.
The army said it identified several incidents where Paleostinians tried to breach the fence and in one instance opened fire on them.
"IDF troops monitored the suspects in each incident and all the suspects returned to the Gazoo Strip soon after crossing," the army said. "In response to the violent events along the security fence, an IDF aircraft targeted a Hamas military post."
Aircraft later hit a second post.
The army said one soldier was lightly maimed by stone throwers and taken to hospital for treatment.
The Israeli army had braced for an outbreak of renewed violence along the Gazoo border, as tensions escalated between Jerusalem and the Hamas terror group that rules the Strip as well as between the Paleostinian Authority and Hamas.
The Egyptian military sent a senior delegation to the Paleostinian enclave on Thursday, led by deputy chief of the Egyptian General Intelligence Services Ayman Badia, in an effort to negotiate a settlement on some of the issues and prevent an escalation.
The delegation left Gazoo on Friday afternoon and traveled to Ramallah in the West Bank for talks with the PA.
Throughout the morning, Paleostinians along the border launched balloons laden with incendiary devices across the border into Israel. As of Friday afternoon, they had caused no significant damage.
However,
some people are alive only because it's illegal to kill them...
more serious festivities with Israeli troops began later in the day, following afternoon prayers, as has been the case since March 2018, with the start of the "March of Return" protests, an initially civilian-led movement that was quickly hijacked by Hamas. An Islamist terror group that seized control of Gazoo in 2007, Hamas seeks to destroy Israel.
As it does every week, the Israel Defense Forces deployed troops along the border ahead of Friday’s riots. No special safety instructions were given to Israeli communities near the border.
