The Israeli government is preparing for next week’s planned evacuation of Jewish settlements in the Gaza Strip. Earlier today the Israeli army announced that Gaza will become a closed military zone for Jewish settlers and Israelis beginning on Sunday. Israel is threatening settlers that if they do not voluntarily leave, their homes will be demolished and they will lose everything inside. Meanwhile the Israeli military is cracking down on soldiders who are refusing to take part in the evacuation.
