17-year-old Palestinian killed during border protest, Gaza health ministry says
A 17-year-old Palestinian has been killed during the mass Land Day protest along the Gaza border, a spokesman for the coastal enclave’s health ministry says.
Adham Nidal Sakr Amara was the day’s second Palestinian casualty, but the first since the main demonstrations for Land Day started Saturday afternoon.
The spokesman did not specify what Amara had been struck with, but he said he was hit “directly in the face.”
The Hamas-linked Shehab news site reports that Amara was hit with Israeli fire.
