STORYLINE
Israel and Hamas have fought on-and-off since in 2007, spurring Israel to impose a tight blockade around the territory. Two months ago, Gaza endured its deadliest round of fighting in almost seven years. Hamas launched thousands of rockets at Israeli population centers, killing at least 12 people according to the government, and Israel conducted heavy airstrikes on densely populated areas, killing over 200 Gazans according to Palestinian health officials. The bout of fighting ended in a ceasefire after 11 days, but the situation still remained tense: A controversial march by right-wing Israeli nationalists drew Palestinian protesters to the edge of Jerusalem’s Old City last month, and Israeli authorities have clashed with Palestinians amid plans to demolish buildings in East Jerusalem, a territory Israel took control over in 1967 but Palestinians argue should be part of a future Palestinian state.
