  3. Defining Trends The Gaza Strip Government Policy on allowing goods into the Gaza Strip continues; crossings are now able to absorb over 300 trucks a day. Hamas continues to act aggressively against Israel.

Despite relative calm in the region, rocket and mortar fire continues. During the reported period, 12 rockets were fired at Israeli citizens, including one rocket that hit a kindergarten. In response to these attacks, the IAF initiated pinpoint strikes targeting a Hamas stronghold and a Hamas police naval base.
