HeadlineOct 08, 2018

In the Gaza Strip, Israeli forces shot dead three Palestinians and injured 126 others on Friday during weekly protests near Israel’s separation barrier. Among the dead was a 12-year-old boy, Faris al-Sersawi. Israeli gunfire has killed at least 195 Palestinians and has wounded some 18,000 since Palestinians’ Great March of Return protests began on March 30. In the West Bank, Israeli police say a 23-year-old Palestinian man shot and killed two Israelis and injured a third person at an industrial park near an Israeli settlement on Sunday.
