Although one cannot just enter the Gaza strip, visiting the Israeli cities and kibbutzim around it can provide a view of what is becoming one of the most problematic issues to solve in this conflict. This tour would try to explain how Israelis live in such proximity rocket fire & terror tunnels and what are the recent developments in the area. We'll visit Erez checkpoint – the only entrance/exit for individuals from Gaza to Israel – explaining who can cross there and how does it work, go to a viewpoint – to understand how Gaza swapped hands between Egypt, Israel, the Palestinian Authority and Hamas – and how big is the humanitarian crisis in it, visit an Iron dome unit to discuss rocket fire and tour the bunkered city of Sderot to see how local Israelis live in such proximity to the strip.
