The Palestinian Health Ministry announced the death of 25-year-old Iyad Youssef Suleiman from wounds he sustained in the Israeli offensive launched on the besieged Gaza Strip in July 2014.

Suleiman a native of Jabalia city north of the besieged Gaza Strip was pronounced dead on Wednesday.

The 2014 onslaught launched by the Israeli occupation military on the blockaded coastal enclave of Gaza took away the lives of over 2000 Palestinians and left thousands of others wounds. Heavy material damage was wrought on civilian homes and infrastructure.

A Palestinian young man was pronounced dead on Thursday evening after he succumbed to wounds inflicted by the Israeli military during the Gaza Strip’s border protests.

Spokesperson for the Gaza-based Palestinian Health Ministry Ashraf al-Qidrah identified the casualty as 23-year-old Ahmad Qatoush shot and injured by the Israeli army during the Great March of Return protests staged at the Gaza border.

Qatoush’s death brings the number of Palestinians killed by the Israeli military at the Gaza border since March 30 as high as 119 five among whom have had their bodies withheld by the occupation authorities.
