Palestine - curfews

[edit]

"Early the following day the curfew was broken" - broken, or lifted? --Demiurge1000 (talk) 20:34, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes it was broken and the remainder of the brigade deployed. Jim Sweeney (talk) 08:15, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm still a bit puzzled by this. If there's a curfew and one single person leaves their house to buy a loaf of bread, then technically the curfew has been broken; but I'm assuming that something a lot more significant than that happened. Does the source say any more than just that it was broken? For example, even just to imply it was broken repeatedly? --Demiurge1000 (talk) 10:45, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
