Three Palestinians have died from their wounds days after being shot by
Israeli troops during protests in the Gaza Strip, the territory's health
ministry said on Saturday.
Their deaths bring to 62 the total number of Palestinians killed by
Israeli gunfire on Monday, when thousands of Palestinians protested as
the US officially moved its embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
The three men were 20-year-old Mohammed Mazen Alyan, 58-year-old Moein
Abdel-Hamid Al-Saai, and 21-year-old Ahmed Samara, the Hamas-run
ministry said in a statement.
The ministry said Alyan was wounded east of the Al-Bureij refugee camp,
while other medical sources reported Al-Saai was wounded to the east of
Gaza City. Samara was wounded east of Jabalia, in the north of the
enclave.
Since 30 March, Palestinians have been marching to demand the right to
return to their homes in territory seized by Israel in the 1948 war
marking its creation.
A total of 119 Palestinians have since been killed by Israeli gunfire on
the border between the Gaza Strip and Israel, according to authorities
in Gaza, which is run by the Islamist movement Hamas.
Israel says it has done everything it can to limit civilian casualties and has used lived ammunition only as a last resort.
The Israeli army insists its actions are necessary to defend the border and prevent mass infiltrations.
It accuses Hamas of using the demonstrations to approach and damage the
border fence, including laying explosive devices and attacking soldiers.
