Two Palestinians were injured by Israeli live bullets and twenty others choked on tear gas during clashes that erupted Friday afternoon with Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) who opened gunfire at the participants in peaceful marches at the flashpoints with IOF troops east of Gaza Strip.

The PIC reporters said that a Palestinian youth was injured by a live bullet in his head while the other was shot in the foot. 20 others suffered breathing problems because of IOF shooting of tear gas grenades directly at the protesters they elaborated.

The spokesman of Health Ministry Ashraf al-Qudra said in a press statement that IOF soldiers fired tear gas grenades at two Palestinian ambulance cars resulting in several suffocation cases among paramedics.
