Hundreds of Palestinians marched on Thursday in the funeral procession of Palestinian fishermen Mustafa Abu Odeh who was killed by the Egyptian army off Rafah’s seashore south of the blockaded Gaza Strip.
Political bureau chief of Hamas Ismail Haneyya who attended the funeral said he has reached out to senior Egyptian intelligence officers to launch an immediate probe into the crime.
Egyptian military forces gunned down Abu Odeh off the coast of the southern Gaza Strip on Wednesday evening. He died from his injuries shortly after.
