GAZA, Sept 23 (KUNA) -- A Palestinian youth was killed and 14 others wounded by the Israeli occupation army in eastern Gaza Strip, the Palestinian Health Ministry said Sunday.
Emad Eshtawi, 21, was shot by the Israeli occupation forces east of Gaza City, in addition to wounding 14 others, Health Ministry spokesperson, Dr. Ashraf Al-Qudra told in a press statement.
The eastern border of the Gaza Strip has witnessed night clashes for several days during which Palestinian youths set tires afire and throw stones at Israeli areas to express their rejection of Israeli measures and the imposition of a siege and deliberate killings against the Palestinian people.
This brings the number of Palestinian martyrs since the beginning of Great March of Return protests on 30th of March to 185, including 32 children and three women. (end)
