On Land Day, Israeli forces kill 14 Palestinians, injure hundreds more in Gaza

GAZA CITY (Ma'an) -- Israeli forces shot dead 14 Palestinians and injured over a 1,000 more along the Gaza border on Friday, as thousands of Palestinians demonstrated in “The Great March of Return” on the 42nd anniversary of Land Day.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza confirmed that 14 Palestinians were killed on Friday. They were identified as:

1. Mohammad Kamel Najjar
2. Wahid Nasrallah Abu Samour
3. Mahmoud Abu Muammar
4. Mohammad Abu Amro
5. Amhad Ibrahim Odah
6. Jihad Farina
7. Mahmoud Rahmi
8. Ibrahim Abu Shaer
9. Abd al-Fattah Bahjat Abd al-Nabi
10. Abd al-Qader al-Hawajri
11. Sari Walid Abu Odah
12. Hamdan Ismail Abu Amsha
13. Omar Samour
14. Bader Fayek al-Sabbagh

The ministry added that 1,272 Palestinians were injured. While the majority suffered from severe tear-gas inhalation, tens of Palestinians were injured with live ammunition, some critically.

The ministry called on Palestinians across Gaza to donate blood at hospitals.

Leading up to the march, the Israeli army released a statement saying it had declared the border area along Gaza a “closed military zone,” meaning that any Palestinian who got close to the border fence could risk getting shot.

The Israeli army released statements on Twitter describing the protests as “violent riots.”

“17,000 Palestinians are rioting in 5 locations along the Gaza Strip security fence. The rioters are rolling burning tires and hurling firebombs & rocks at the security fence & IDF troops, who are responding w riot dispersal means and firing towards main instigators,” the statement said.

Despite the Israeli army’s claims, Palestinian activists and leaders in the Gaza Strip have maintained that the “March of Return” was organized as a massive non-violent, weeks-long protest advocating for the return of Palestinian refugees to their original homelands in historic Palestine, now present day Israel.

Israeli sniper kills young demonstrator near the border for throwing a rock at the fence(he stops moving forward before he is shot): (Warning sensitive content)

RIP .... How can that 'soldier' sleep at night? Sick people . Is what IDF calls 'rioting' and being in 'imminent danger'? PS: They are very far away and no crossed or attempted to climb the fence.

Israel mentality is a sad state of affairs. Instead of trying to have peace with the Arabs now that middle east is in chaos(temporarily) they instead have made a fascist turn as their own ex prime minister Ehud Barack has warned.

All zionism is based on one myth(that the world hates them). What a better way to achieve this hatred by killing innocent civilians?

Not sure what the Israelis are worried about a bunch of Palestinians peacefully gathering in a peaceful protest?

I guess it's the atmosphere of fear. If you brutally suppress even peaceful protests, people won't want to partake in them for fear of their lives.

I know @Falcon29 thinks differently, but I think the Zionists have no problem with the current situation. They can brutally suppress the Palestinians in the smallest protest. They have the support of the US, whatever they do. They keep the conditions in Palestine so bad that people want to escape it. Eventually they can expel the population as refugees, while they continue to build their illegal settlements and annex the whole area.

They have complete control. It's easy to see why they keep hijacking negotiations.

I'm not naive my friend and agree with you, there is nothing else though that can be done now. People in the region are too invested into internal conflict and other motives. Once we all become good again, and I believe Islam will make us that, then we can consider other options.

"Rioters".

That's just unbelievable. The kid is actually taking the tire away and literally running in the opposite direction and what does he get for that? A bullet in the back! You won't find anything more cowardly than that.

BTW, listening to NPR today and they mentioned what was happening, including the death toll when it was at 12. They also said that the Israelis were responding to rocks and burnt tires being "hurled" at them. They also mentioned the shelling the Israelis were doing. Such a ridiculous disproportionate use of force.

I guess it's the atmosphere of fear. If you brutally suppress even peaceful protests, people won't want to partake in them for fear of their lives.

Yep, and the incredible thing is that it doesn't work. They'll always "endanger" the Israelis with rocks and burnt tires.

They have complete control. It's easy to see why they keep hijacking negotiations.

Just before the US embassy announcement by the orange baboon, Hamas and Fatah were in reconciliation and Egypt was helping with the negotiations and they were ready to force Netanyahu to the table and then...

Salute to all the protesters and martyrs..

Pakistan must raise voice in UN and all forums against israeli brutality against unarmed Palestinians.

Are they using live rounds? They could use rubber bullets instead.

When I say Israel is just the other side of ISIS, this is what I mean. Sniping a young man while he is praying.

Probably wouldn't be as effective at that cowardly range, hence not cruel enough.
