The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRC) has reported that Israeli soldiers killed, Friday, two Palestinians in the ongoing processions across the Gaza Strip, and injured at least ninety others, including three who suffered serious wounds. Earlier Friday, the soldiers killed a farmer in Khan Younis.
The PRC said the soldiers killed a young man, identified as Mohammad Kamal Najjar, 25, with a live fire, east of Jabalia, in northern Gaza.
Mohammad was from Tal az-Za’tar area, in northern Gaza; eyewitnesses said the soldiers fired live rounds directly targeting him.
Furthermore, the soldiers killed Amin Mahmoud Moammar, 38, from Rafah, in the southern part of the Gaza Strip, also after shooting him with live fire.
The PRC added that at least 54 Palestinians were shot with live fire, and dozens suffered the effects of teargas inhalation.
Among the wounded Palestinians are ten, including a young woman, who were shot with live fire, east of the Zeitoun neighborhood, southeast of Gaza city; most of them were shot in their legs, and suffered moderate injuries.
At least seven Palestinians were shot with live fire, east of Khan Younis, in southern Gaza Strip, 4 in nearby Rafah, and were rushed to Nasser Hospital, the European Hospital and Abu Yousef Najjar Hospital, while dozens more suffered the effects of teargas inhalation.
At least four other Palestinians were shot east of Jabalia town, and two others north of Beit Lahia,
and Beit Hanoun, in northern Gaza.
Reports from the Red Crescent in Gaza revealed that, so far, the soldiers shot with live fire 10 Palestinians in Gaza city, 20 in Jabalia, 8 in Deir al-Balah, 12 in Rafah, and seven in Gaza Younis.
The reports do not include many Palestinians, who are receiving treatment in field clinics, which were installed in several parts of the Gaza Strip.
The injuries and fatalities took place in six areas in the besieged Gaza Strip, after thousands of Palestinians marched on their lands, marking the Palestinian Land Day, and protesting the ongoing illegal Israeli occupation of Palestine, including Jerusalem.
The processions started following noon prayers in the coastal region, and were attended by thousands of Palestinians, and political leaders, including Yahia Sinwar the head of Hamas movement, and its Political Bureau leader Ismael Haniyya.

Thousands of Palestinians are still gathering in the five allotted areas of nonviolent protests, nearly 700 meters away from the border fence, east of Sheja’eyya neighborhood in Gaza city, east of the al-Boreij refugee camp, in central Gaza, east of Rafah and Khan Younis, in southern Gaza, and Abu Safiyya area, east of Jabalia, in northern Gaza.
Several protesters burnt posters of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and U.S. President Donald Trump, east of Gaza city.
Earlier on Friday morning, the soldiers fired tank and artillery shells at Palestinian farmers, east of the Al-Qarara area, east of Khan Younis, in the southern part of the Gaza Strip, killing one, identified as Omar Wahid Nasrallah Sammour, 27, and seriously wounding another.
On Thursday evening, the Palestinians installed tents 700 meters away from the fence, east of Gaza city, while medics installed mobile clinics, especially since the army is preparing to use live ammunition against the nonviolent protesters.
It is worth mentioning that the army infiltrated cellular networks in Gaza, especially phones owned by organizers of the processions, and tried to provide false information regarding places of protests.

Israeli soldiers shot, on Friday morning, seven Palestinians, including a young woman, in various parts of the besieged Gaza Strip, just as the Palestinians started the nonviolent processions on their lands, hundreds of meters away from the border fence, in several parts of the coastal region.
Medical sources said the soldiers shot three Palestinians in the al-Boreij refugee camp, in central Gaza Strip, one in Rafah, in southern Gaza, and three others in Jabalia, in the northern part of the coastal region.
The Israeli attack came just as the nonviolent processions were starting in the Gaza Strip, while the Palestinians were hundreds of meters away from the border fence.
On Thursday evening, the Palestinians installed tents 700 meters away from the fence, east of Gaza city, while medics installed mobile clinics, especially since the army is preparing to use live ammunition against the nonviolent protesters.

The fatal Israeli attack, and the injuries, came shortly after the Israeli military, and the political leadership in Tel Aviv, have decided on “shoot to kill orders” against Palestinians who breech, or even approach the border fence.
The Israeli Cabinet also decided to significantly increase military deployments, in addition to using live fire and shoot to kill orders “if the Palestinians breach (or approach) the security fence” in the besieged coastal territory.
On Thursday evening, the soldiers shot seven Palestinians, near border areas east of Khan Younis, and Gaza city.
