Thousands of Palestinian women rally on Gaza-Israel border

Thousands of Palestinian women demonstrated Tuesday along the fence that separates the Gaza Strip from Israel, their first mass mobilisation since protests erupted on the border three months ago. Since the end of March, Gazans have been demonstrating along the heavily guarded frontier in protest at Israel's decade-long blockade of the territory and in support of the Palestinians' right to return to lands they fled or were driven from during the war surrounding the creation of Israel in 1948.
