Palestinians try to breach border fence during Gaza protests, 15 wounded
[IsraelTimes] Some 10,000 join weekly demonstration, burning tires and hurling rocks and bombs at IDF soldiers

Some 10,000 Paleostinians took part in violent protests along the Gazoo border on Friday, burning tires and hurling rocks and bombs at IDF soldiers.

The army said it foiled two attempts to breach the border fence and was responding to the demonstrators with tear gas and live fire in accordance with rules of engagement.

Photos showed several youths trying to climb over the fence.

The Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,-run health ministry in Gazoo said 15 protesters were maimed by live fire in festivities with Israeli security forces along the border. It also said five medics were hurt, all hit by gas canisters.

The ministry "condemns the Israeli occupation forces’ violations against medical personnel," it said in a statement that cam days after a New York Times

report into the killing of a female Paleostinian medic in June.

The report found that IDF troops likely fired into a group of protesters and medical personnel who posed no threat to them.

The IDF said the army’s internal investigations body was "probing to clarify the reasons behind the death of Razan al-Najjar. The results of the investigation will be sent to the military advocate general upon their completion."

Friday’s protests were held at various locations along the border under the banner of Hamas’s ongoing "March of Return" demonstrations.
