Israel is deploying sharpshooters ahead of expected protests by Palestinians.

In an interview early Wednesday, Israel’s top general confirmed the presence of 100 sharpshooters.

It is expected that thousands of Palestinians will flock to tent cities set up to dispute Israel’s occupation of the Gaza Strip, which Israel ceded from Egypt in the 1967 Six-Day War.

The protests are expected to begin this Friday. They will be spread out over five different locations, and are expected to last six weeks.

The sharpshooters are meant to prevent infiltration of Palestinians into Israel, and they will enforce a “no-go” zone in front of the fence. However, this may not deter the protesters.

“Our main goal is to deliver a message that we will be chasing our right of return,” said protest organizer Emad Salim. “Our dream is to return to our Palestinian cities and villages which our ancestors were forced to leave.”
