The Netzarim Corridor
A road being built by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) across the 6.5-kilometer-wide (about 4-mile-wide) strip — known as “the Netzarim Corridor” — dividing the north of the enclave from the south, has reached the Mediterranean coast, satellite imagery shows. The road will be used for the movement of troops and logistical equipment as well as providing an “operational foothold” in the area, according to the IDF.
