Islamic Jihad official: Mass protests in Gaza Wednesday for Nakba Day
A top Islamic Jihad official in the Gaza Strip says there will be mass protests along the Israeli border Wednesday to mark Nakba Day, Ynet reports.
Palestinians will mark the 71th anniversary of the Nakba, or “catastrophe,” of Israel’s creation in 1948.
Khaled al-Batsh calls on Palestinians to participate in order to reiterate their right of return to lands that now make up Israel.
He also expresses hope that no one will be killed in the demonstrations.
