(Channel 2 News) Jerusalem, June 5 - Around 500 infiltrators, some of them armed, attempted to storm Israel’s border with Syria Sunday. The events coincide with the Palestinian ‘Naqsa Day,’ the anniversary of the Six Day War in 1967. The <http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/06/05/us-palestinians-israel-violence-idUSTRE7540NV20110605> protesters are trying to enter Israel near the northern Golan Heights’ town, Majdal Shams, primarily from the southwestern Syrian town of Kuneitra. As they converged on the border fence, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) called on the infiltrators in Arabic to cease progress before firing warning shots in the air. Once these warnings were ignored, the IDF were forced to fire towards the legs of those breaching the fence. The IDF spokesperson told <http://news.xinhuanet.com/english2010/world/2011-06/05/c_13912250.htm> Xinhua News that “soldiers shot into the air as dozens of protesters kept approaching the fences, despite warnings to stay away,” and that the IDF used “bullhorns to warn rioters in Arabic” to not approach the border fence. The IDF could not confirm reports of dead and wounded. The protests are part of an orchestrated Syrian campaign to deflect attention from its killing of its own people. The Syrian regime, <http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/World-News/Syria-Violence-Activists-Report-Seeing-Tanks-Near-Hama-As-Protesters-Are-Buried-Following-Violence/Article/201106116005547?lpos=World_News_First_Home_Article_Teaser_Region_3&lid=ARTICLE_16005547_Syria_Violence%3A_Activists_Report_Seeing_Tanks_Near_Hama_As_Protesters_Are_Buried_Following_Violence> which has killed hundreds and injured thousands with Iran’s help, is thought to be deflecting attention away from its own domestic strife - including excessive violence against demonstrators, lack of internet and free speech - by focusing on Israel. In contrast, the Lebanese-Israeli border has maintained relative quiet while Jordan has urged residents not to march on Israel. Foreign nationals that try to infiltrate Israel are illegally trying to enter a sovereign nation. Much like other nations that defend their sovereign borders, Israel is trying to protect violent mobs from storming its boundaries. This follows similar Naqba Day events on May 15, in which violent protesters stormed Israel’s borders.
