Seven Palestinian students and one Israeli soldier were wounded during clashes outside a Jewish settlement in the Gaza Strip. Israeli officials barred Palestinian trucks from entering the Jewish state on Sunday after the violent clashes erupted at the Netzarim settlement. Palestinian students began protests outside the settlement to mark the 18th anniversary of the massacres of Palestinian refugees at the Sabra and Shatila camps in Lebanon by pro-Israel Christian Lebanese forces.
