Temporary Extension of Fishing Zone Expires | | IMEMC News & Agencies - "As part of Israel’s blockade off the coastal enclave
since 2007, Palestinian fishermen have been required to work within a limited
`designated fishing zone.` The exact limits of the zone are decided by the Israeli
authorities and have historically fluctuated, most recently extended to six nautical
miles from three, following a ceasefire agreement that ended Israel’s 2014
offensive on the Palestinian territory" [ry]

Front-page article in ‘NYT’ exposes the lie that wall is a security barrier | | James North and Philip Weiss - Mondoweiss - The New York Times today has a top-of-the-front-page article about tens of thousands of Palestinians managing to get over or through “what Israelis call the security barrier” to work without papers inside Israel. It is a vivid account of smuggling workers into Israel from Palestine. On the one hand, the article by James Glanz and Rami Nazzal, marks real progress: the Times is showing that the wall is not really a security barrier — 55,000 Palestinians legally pass through it and 30-60,000 illegally. If Palestinians really want to kill Israelis, the wall is no obstacle at all.-rh

Gaza Mechanic Turns Heads With Classic Mercedes Replica | | Nidal al-Mughrabi - Ha`aretz - Repairing cars in the Gulf, a
Palestinian mechanic from Gaza spotted a vehicle that took his
breath away - the classic Mercedes Gazelle. Munir Shindi knew that
he had to have one, and after returning home to Gaza, set about
building a replica of the 1927 model of the two-door, open-top
roadster from scratch. Harsh conditions in the Strip did not deter
him from going on, cannibalizing parts from used vehicles and
importing a few items such as locks, hub caps and hinges from the
United States. Now, the masterpiece shaped by Shindi, 36, is on
display in his workshop, admired by his neighbors. [ak] | 21/6/2016 |

Organization marks World Day Against Child Labour, an initiative that has seen
the number of child labourers drop to 168 million from 246 million in 2000. But in
Gaza the trend has been upward. According to Palestinian estimates, child

What Israel calls progress, Palestinians see as oppression | | Ahmad Melhem - Al-Monitor - Author and political analyst Ahmed Rafiq Awad also told Al-Monitor that Israel’s proposals are merely an attempt to present itself as helping Palestinians economically and allowing them to move freely.“The Israeli improvements are tools of occupation. Israel makes the Palestinians’ lives complicated, then provides a few improvements to ease the conditions,” Awad added.-rh
