The Israeli army is reinforcing its presence along the Gaza border, according to the Israeli news site Walla.
The website claims that these reinforcements come in response to Hamas' plans for confrontations near the barrier along the Gaza border later today.
In a related context, the "Rebel Youth" group has called for participation in an event to set tires on fire in protest against repeated attacks on the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound and in solidarity with prisoners on the eastern border of Gaza.
Last Wednesday, five Palestinians were killed, and 25 others were injured in an explosion that occurred in the Queen area along the eastern border of the Gaza Strip.
