Makan reported some 'Israeli' estimates ruling out escalation with the Palestinian resistance' factions in the Gaza Strip as a result of the citizens' march along the fence of the Strip.

Correspondent Ro'i Sharon reported that some high-profile officials believe that the injury of the Israeli soldier from a short distance was dangerous, but should not lead to an escalation since it was a 'tactical incident'.

Estimates pointed to how the incident could have been avoided, and that the use of force was not suitable. However, the injury of the soldier uncovered an 'operative defect' in the occupation's units stationed in the areas surrounding the Strip.

The occupation's army decided to initiate intensive construction work along the separation wall to prevent Palestinian protestors from quickly reaching it.
