Israeli Protesters Block Gaza Crossings in Campaign to Free Captured Israeli Soldier
[Jerusalem Post] Dozens of activists from the Movement to Free Gilad Shalit and the Kibbutz Movement blocked the crossings to the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, demanding the release of the abducted soldier who has been held by Hamas for the past three years. The protesters are demanding that Hamas allow the Red Cross to visit Shalit. They also threatened to block visits to Hamas prisoners held in Israeli jails. The Israel Road Transport Board requested that trucking companies refrain from delivering any goods to Gaza on Tuesday in solidarity with the campaign to free Shalit.
