Already protestors are out in several locations trying to block roads.

Samarian "Peace House" Protests

(IsraelNN.com) About 100 Breslav hasidim and other nationalist activists came to the Huwara checkpoint south of Shechem Monday night to protest what is feared to be the imminent eviction by the government of Jewish residents from the Peace House in Hevron. Seven were arrested on suspicion of attacking police.

Another 50 Breslavers and right-wingers came to the Yitzhar Junction to protest. Army and police forces were summoned to the scene. Arab sources in Shechem say Yitzhar residents caused damage to houses in the neighboring Arab village of Borin by throwing rocks at them.

There are demos at the following junctions: Neveh Tzuf, Shiloh, Mitzpeh Yericho, Bet-El, Chashmonaim, Kochav HaShachar, Military Training Base 3, Yitzhar, Tapuach.

30 arrested.
