Israeli military vehicles 'breach Gaza border' | Maan News Agency
GAZA CITY (Ma’an) -- Several Israeli military vehicles breached the border with the Gaza Strip on Monday morning, but no confrontations were reported.
Locals told Ma'an the vehicles were scanning agricultural land east of Khan Younis, in south Gaza. Farmers immediately evacuated their fields, fearing troops would open fire, they said.
An Israeli military spokesman said the troops were conducting "routine activity" in the area.
Israel had barred Palestinians from coming within hundreds of meters of the border, but in a November ceasefire deal agreed to ease curbs on Gaza.
Israel has violated the recent ceasefire many times.
Israel's "routine activity" is to violate every ceasefire ever made.
This is a detailed list of Palestinian rocket and mortar attacks on Israel in 2012. All of the attacks originated in the Gaza Strip, unless stated otherwise.
As of November 2012, over 2,256 rockets had been launched at Israel from Gaza since January 2012.[1][2]
