Palestinian Health Ministry announced on Thursday that 72 people including 17 children and 6 women were killed, and 400 were wounded, as a result of the Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip.
On Monday, Israeli police forces injured hundreds of Palestinians as they violently cracked down on worshippers at Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa Mosque compound.
Violence erupted last Friday at Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa Mosque amid growing anger over the potential eviction of Palestinians from homes on land claimed by Israeli settlers. The clashes escalated on Monday.
Meantime, Israeli forces Thursday killed a Palestinian near Madama village, south of Nablus city, according to the Health Ministry.
The Israeli military claimed that the slain Palestinian purportedly drove his vehicle to a military roadblock and opened fire towards the soldiers, injuring two before being gunned down.
Palestinian medics were prevented from providing treatment to Mohammad Najjar, who was in a serious condition. Najjar’s body is still withheld by the military.
