Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Gazan health ministry says that 30 Palestinians have been injured during clashes with the IDF along the border with Israel.
One of the Palestinians was critically wounded, according to the ministry.
Palestinian protesters in Gaza hurled explosives and firebombs at Israeli troops manning the border, during what the Israel Defense Forces described as “several attempts” to damage the fence between Israel and the Gaza Strip and cross over into Israeli territory.
Thousands of Palestinians are taking part in violent riots in five locations along the length of the border, the army says. In addition to trying to cross the barrier, a number of attacks were carried out, with demonstrators throwing Molotov cocktails and explosives at Israeli soldiers.
