Medics Targeted by Israeli Forces at March of Return Protest in Gaza (+Video)


TEHRAN (Tasnim) - Over 30 Palestinians, including three paramedics, were injured by Israeli fire during the Great March of Return protest in Gaza.

Gaza Health Ministry reported that Israeli forces were “targeting three ambulances (2 for the Red Crescent and 1 for medical relief).”

One ambulance was hit by a tear gas canister, which broke its windscreen, as shown in the video.

Palestinians have been holding protests every Friday since the end of March demanding the implementation of refugees’ right of return to the lands they lost during the establishment of the state of Israel, and to bring an end to the 11-year blockade on Gaza.

Over 200 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire since then, including medics, journalists and children, and thousands have been injured.
