Gazans gathering at fence for new mass protest against Israel

Tehran (KNA) - Palestinian protesters are gathering at Gaza’s border fence for what is expected to be the largest anti-occupation rally since last Friday, when the Israeli military shot and killed 20 unarmed demonstrators.

Hundreds of protesters have already arrived at the fence separating the Gaza Strip from the Israeli-occupied territories, with their numbers expected to reach some 30,000 later on Friday.

On March 30 marked the start of a six-week protest in Gaza, dubbed "The Great March of Return."That mass protest turned violent when Israeli military forces used lethal force to disperse the crowd.

Earlier on Friday, another Palestinian died of gunshot wounds suffered last week, bringing the death toll from Israel's brutal crackdown to 20. Some 1,500 people were also injured.
