Palestinians move towards the fence between Israel and Gaza strip as they take part during a protest during a protest marking 'Land Day' along the border between Israel and the Gaza Strip, in the eastern Gaza Strip. The "Land Day" commemorates the 30 March 1976 events, when marches and a general strike were organized in Arab towns against the Israeli government's decision to expropriate large tracts of Palestinian-owned land for settlement. The annual event calls for the Palestinian right to return to the land they were displaced from after the creation of Israel in 1948. (Photo by Ahmed Zakot / SOPA Images/Sipa USA)
