Recent changes
editThe claim that Israel does not allow goods to go directly from Egypt into Gaza through the Egypt–Gaza border is unfounded. Israel has no control over that border. I have undone the changes and it can be discussed here. Dovidroth (talk) 06:34, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
Why no pictures of the wall?
editWikimedia Commons has a whole bunch of pictures of the wall, including the anti-tunnel barrier. We should add some.

I suggest deleting the phrase ", which could only be of use for infiltration by militants," as it does not seem to be supported by reliable sources. The NPR article says that many tunnels discovered had been used for infiltration, but does not state that tunnels could "only" be used to infiltrate. Experience with tunnels in other regions suggests that cross-border tunnels could be used for migration, smuggling of goods, and several other purposes. Given the contentious nature of the topic I suggest a strict reading of the reliable source. Vegastrong (talk) 03:25, 10 October 2023 (UTC)

Edit needed for malformed sentence
editThe following sentence looks like an editing error: "From 1994 until 2004 a suicide bomber originating from within the Gaza Strip successfully carried out an attack in Israel (on 14 March 2004 in Ashdod)." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wmagro (talk • contribs) 15:34, 29 October 2023 (UTC)

"Dubious" claim
editThe NYT article doesn't mention 2011 at all. Please revert the two latest edits and change the 2011 to 2006. Probably an editor made a mistake. KetchupSalt (talk) 10:19, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
