Dead and wounded in protests Gaza

gaza city - Certainly one Palestinian died in new confrontations between demonstrators and Israeli soldiers. Also, according to medical workers, at least 170 demonstrators were injured on the border between the Gaza Strip and Israel. A spokesman for the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza talked about two fatalities.

The Israeli army estimates that some five thousand Palestinians participate in the protests. Protesters threw stones towards soldiers and set fire tires on fire. Witnesses say that the Israelis used a drone to take down burning kites who had been put off by demonstrators.

It has been uneasy for weeks on the border between Gaza and Israel. Palestinians have been demonstrating at the border fence since the end of March. Dozens of people died during these protests. With the so-called 'March of return', the activists demand that Palestinians who fled the area in the past may return to what is now Israel.
