IDF order likely to target first Palestinians with Gaza addresses

A new military order aimed at preventing "infiltration" will come into force this week, Amira Haas warns in an article published in the Haaretz on April 11th 2010. According to the provisions, "a person is presumed to be an infiltrator if he is present in the area (the West Bank) without a document or permit which attest to his lawful presence in the area without reasonable justification." The first Palestinians likely to be targeted under the new rules will be those whose ID cards bear home addresses in the Gaza Strip - people born in Gaza and their West Bank-born children.
