After a large rally in Sderot Tuesday night, protesters have reached the town of Ofakim, which will be a launching point for the march on Gush Katif following a rally on Wednesday evening.

Leaders of the Council of Jewish Communities in Judea, Samaria, and Gaza (Yesha) have instructed activists to "attempt to reach Gush Katif" after the Ofakim rally, scheduled for 6:00 PM Wednesday. Yesha leaders again emphasized not to confront soldiers and police.

According to the Yesha Council which is organizing the protests, 35,000 people attended the rally in the western Negev town of Sderot Tuesday night, with supporters continuing to arrive late into the night - many by foot. Protesters then continued to the town of Ofakim, where organizers say 60,000 protesters are awaiting a rally to take place Wednesday night - followed by a planned march toward Gush Katif.
