Tensions In Gaza Remain High After Continuous Border Clashes With Israel

For the 1.9 million Palestinians living inside the Gaza Strip life has become a daily struggle for food, electricity and money after 10 years of an Israeli blockade on the area. Tensions are high along the Gaza-Israel border following more than a month of weekly mass protests near the fence that has left 40 Palestinian protesters killed and over 1,700 wounded by Israeli army fire. Gaza's Hamas rulers have vowed that the marches will continue until the decade-old Israeli blockade of the territory is lifted. Protests are expected today, as well as on May 14 and 15, the day Palestinians mark the Yawm an-Nakba or 'Day of Catastrophe', to commemorate the anniversary of their mass uprooting during the 1948 war over Israel's creation.
