A Palestinian man died at a roadblock in the West Bank city of Ramalla while attempting to go to a hospital. According to Palestinian sources, the man arrived at the roadblock and pleaded with soldiers to allow him through. Shortly thereafter he died. Meanwhile, in Gaza, hundreds of labourers demonstrated against one of Israel’s methods to try to prevent more suicide bombing attacks–the closure of the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
