Far right Israelis storm Gaza boundary to build illegal settlement

Far-right Israeli activists forced their way through an Israeli military checkpoint and entered Gaza near the Beit Hanoon (known as Erez to Israelis) crossing, but were prevented from carrying building materials into the Palestinian territory in order to establish an illegal settlement.

A group of approximately 100 far-right activists took part and some advanced as much as 500 metres (0.3 miles) into Gaza, according to reports.
