GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) - Three young Palestinian demonstrators on Friday were wounded by fire from Israeli soldiers in eastern Gaza, the Palestinian Health Ministry said.
The young men were rushed to Al-Shifa Hospital, said ministry spokesman Esref el-Kudra.
They had been protesting Israeli violations against Palestinians, he added.
In July and August of 2014, Israel waged a weeks-long military offensive against the Gaza Strip with the ostensible aim of staunching rocket fire from the coastal enclave.
More than 2,160 Palestinians, mostly civilians, were killed – and some 11,000 injured – during the 51-day onslaught. Some 73 Israelis, mostly soldiers, were killed in the offensive.
