Israeli forces killed four Palestinians as thousands protested and clashes erupted along the Gaza border yesterday, a week after a mass demonstration led to violence and the bloodiest day since a 2014 war.

Gaza's health ministry also reported that some 408 Palestinians had been taken to hospitals and medical centres for treatment. The dead included a 16-year-old, it said.

Palestinians border protest

Violence erupted as thousands of Palestinians approached the border separating Israel from the Gaza Strip. The Israeli military said its troops responded to “main instigators” who were throwing stones and rolling burning tires. The Israeli military also accused militants of trying to carry out attacks under the cover of mass protests.

The Palestinian Health Ministry said Israeli forces fired live bullets, rubber-coated steel pellets and tear gas.

It was the deadliest day in Gaza, a self-governing Palestinian territory, since the 2014 war between Israel and Hamas.
