Gaza Ministry of Health announced that a Palestinian man died on Sunday evening of wounds he sustained during the Great March of Return weeks ago.

The Ministry said in a brief statement that Anwar Qdeih 33 was shot by the Israeli occupation forces in the neck.

The Great March of Return was launched on 30 March 2018 along the border between the Gaza Strip and the 1948 occupied Palestinian territories with two aims: demanding the Palestinian refugees’ right of return and pressuring Israel to lift the blockade on Gaza.

The Israeli occupation army has killed dozens of peaceful protesters and injured thousands others by live ammunition and teargas bombs.

Gaza Ministry of Health announced that a Palestinian youth died on Tuesday evening of wounds he sustained during a demonstration on northern Gaza’s coast on Monday.

The Ministry said in a brief statement that Saddam Abu Shlash 27 was shot by the Israeli occupation forces during his participation in Monday’s protests.

Dozens were injured on Monday when the Israeli forces opened fire at the Palestinians demonstrating peacefully near the sea border with the 1948 occupied Palestine north of the Gaza Strip.

Sea marches have been over the past weeks a major part of the Great March of Return that started on 30 March. At least 210 Palestinians have been killed by the Israeli army and 22000 injured.
