A year to the events of the Wall Guard, which broke out in parallel with the flag march on Jerusalem Day and became an extensive military operation - and among the residents of the south and the Gaza Strip, the fear of "rebroadcasting" is growing this year as well.
In the envelope localities, continuous contact is maintained with the military and awaits the latest guidelines and assessments of the situation.
"We hope they will not burn our fields," says Ofer Lieberman, a farmer from Kibbutz Nir Am.
"There is a feeling of discomfort in the whole area and also among the farmers. We are used to snatching and we are constantly alert. We hope that the Jerusalem march will not escalate, it is clear to us that every stray bullet and dead killer can get the situation out of control."
He wants to emphasize that "it is clear to all of us that we have the right to wave the Israeli flag anywhere and at any time. I also wave Israeli flags on my vehicle and in the yard every day of the year."
Ofer is not the only one who is afraid.
Eyal Hajabi, Lt. Col. (Res.), Has been the Chief of Staff of the Sha'ar Hanegev Council for 10 years and lives in the city of Netivot.
"We here in the envelope are in a rather tense period, it can be defined as a tense spring, with peak alertness. We understand from the vast experience we have accumulated here in the envelope that the next round will start from where the round was stopped or stopped. .
Hajabi claims that the situation in which the residents of the envelope are damaged by what is happening in the center or in Jerusalem, is unbearable.
"We very much hope that one day we will stop being hostages of the terrorist organizations in Gaza and we will be able to raise our children quietly, safely and peacefully. As we have done in the last decade - without any orderly agreements. "
