Zionist forces martyr more Palestinians in Gaza
There seems to be no cut to the streak of young Palestinians being martyred by Zionist forces at the fence area separating the besieged Gaza Strip from the occupied territories.
According to Press TV, Ashraf al-Qidra, spokesman for the Gaza Health Ministry, said three Palestinians were martyred on Friday east of Khan Yunis in southern Gaza, identifying them as Nassar Eyad Abu Taim, 19, Ahmed Saied Abu Labda, 22, and 23-year-old Ayesh Ghassan Shaat.
He said Israeli soldiers also killed Muhammad Khaled Mahmoud Abdul Nabi, 27, east of Jabalia, about four kilometers north of Gaza City.
Jabr Ibrahim Abu Hamisa, 25, was also martyred in an incident east of al-Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza. The cause of the deadly event was not clear.
Tensions have been running high near the border fence since March 30, which marked the start of a series of protests dubbed “The Great March of Return.” Palestinian protesters demand the right to return for those driven out of their homeland.
The clashes in Gaza reached their peak on May 14, the eve of the 70th anniversary of Nakba Day, or the Day of Catastrophe, which coincided this year with Washington's relocation of the US embassy from Tel Aviv to al-Quds.
More than 190 Palestinians have so far been martyred and over 20,000 others wounded in the renewed Gaza clashes, according to the latest figures released by the Gaza Health Ministry.
