TEHRAN, August 18 - Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip have held a funeral ceremony for two men killed by Israeli forces along the fence between the coastal enclave and the occupied territories.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - On Saturday, mourners attended the funeral procession for 26-year-old Sadi Moamer and Kareem Fatayar, who were shot in the head by Israeli forces during “Great March of Return” protests on Friday.
Fatayer was shot near the central Gaza Strip town of Bureij while Moamer was killed near Rafah in the south.
Some 20,000 Gazans participated in Friday's protests, which took place a few hundred meters from the Israeli fence. Medics said Israeli gunfire also wounded at least 270 other Palestinians, 50 of them with live bullets.
