Israel, Palestinians Cooperate on Gaza High-Speed Internet
(Jerusalem Post) Tovah Lazaroff - For two days hostilities ceased along a half kilometer stretch of the Gaza fence as workers wearing bullet-proof vests and helmets lay 15 km. of new optical cables in an area that faces an almost daily barrage of mortars and rockets from Gaza. The new infrastructure will support high speed Internet service for Gaza. "This is Israel's answer to the hundreds of mortars, to connect the people in Gaza to the world," said IDF Maj. Adam Avidan. He added that Israel was fighting terrorists in Gaza, not its civilians.
