GAZA, Palestine, Nov 2 (NNN-WAFA) – At least 96 Palestinian demonstrators were injured on Friday, during clashes in eastern Gaza Strip with Israeli soldiers, according to a local official.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ashraf al-Qedra, spokesman of the Health Ministry in Gaza, said that, 96 Palestinian demonstrators were injured in eastern Gaza, including 57, who were shot and injured by Israeli soldiers’ live gunfire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hundreds of Palestinians flocked to the eastern border of the Gaza Strip with Israel, to join the weekly anti-Israel rallies and protests, better known as the “Great March of Return,” which has been going on since late Mar, last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Field paramedics said, dozens were injured, after inhaling intensive tear gas fired by the soldiers, and some were also injured by rubber-coated metal bullets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hazzem Qassem, spokesman of the Hamas movement in Gaza, told reporters that, the masses of participants in the Great March of Return “again show our people’s will to topple all the planned plots against our cause.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Highest Commission of the Great March of Return earlier called on the coastal enclave’s population, to join the 81st weekly rallies, to protest against the Balfour Declaration that will be marked today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During World War I, the British government issued a declaration on Nov 2, 1917, announcing its support for the establishment of a “national home” for the Jewish people, in Palestine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The commission said, the Palestinians call for referring “the cases of the occupation (Israel) crimes to international courts,” adding, “we call on Britain to apologise to our people for issuing the declaration.”– NNN-WAFA <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
