IDF soldier reportedly injured in Gaza border riots
An IDF soldier is injured in clashes along the Gaza border, east of Jabaliya, according to initial reports.
The extent of the soldier’s wounds are not immediately known.
He was reportedly hit by an improvised explosive thrown by Palestinians during a riot along the Gaza border.
During the same clash in the northern Gaza Strip, nine Palestinians were injured, the Hamas-run Health Ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qidra says in a statement to reporters. They suffered varying injuries, he adds.
