Protesters formed a sit-in protest as they scattered rocks across the road to prevent vehicles from passing, bringing traffic to a standstill. Dozens of Israeli activists from the \"Tsav 9\" movement blocked Humanitarian aid trucks to Gaza, close to Mitzpe Ramon, after they blocked overnight in the Eilat area. Large police forces that included Border Police units were dispatched to the scene, while protestors attempted to hold the trucks back at the Kerem Shalom border crossing as well. The protest came as Israeli army forces massed on the outskirts of Rafah, after U.S. President Joe Biden vowed to withhold weapons from Israel if its forces launched a major invasion of the southern Gaza city.
