Early in the morning, the IDF shuts the Erez border crossing into Gaza and makes a brief incursion into the destroyed Erez industrial zone to repave a road. Also in the morning, IDF troops on the c. Gaza border fire warning shots at Palestinians who stray too near the border fence, forcing them to flee. In the West Bank, the IDF conducts late-night patrols in Jericho, and late-night arrest raids, house searches in Tubas. (PCHR 3/8; PCHR 3/15; OCHA 3/16)
