Israeli forces kill two Palestinians in Gaza protest

The ministry said in a statement Friday that two Palestinians were killed and more than 70 others were injured during clashes with Israeli forces in northern Gaza near the border with Israel.

According to local media, 24-year-old Zakariya al-Kafarneh was killed by ammunition Israeli forces for the fact that she had been part of the protests, reports “Al Jazeera”, Periscopi broadcast.

The name of the second Palestinian killer is unknown.

The news agency “Maan” said Israeli troops used live bullets, tear gas and storm grenades against Palestinian protesters, who had gathered for Friday's third angry demonstration since Trump announced his decision in early December.

At least 103 Palestinians have been sent to hospitals throughout the busy West Coast and the Gaza Strip on Friday for dealing with injuries from protests, the health ministry said in a statement.

Last week, the Israeli army killed Palestinian Ibrahim Abu Thurije while he was protesting in the besieged territory.

At least eight Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces during protests on Trumpï's decision.

At least four people have also been killed by Israeli air strikes in Gaza since early December.

Friday's protests come a day after the UN General Assembly adopted a non-binding resolution describing the decision to recognise Jerusalem as Israel's capital, “invalid”.

Resolution approved by 128 votes for and nine against, while 35 countries abstained. /Periscopi/
