A Palestinian youth has died from wounds sustained in clashes with Israeli forces, along the border between the Gaza Strip and Israel earlier this week, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry.

Mohammed Sami al-Dahdouh was injured after being shot during a protest on December 8, in the east of Gaza City, against US President Donald Trump’s decision to recognise Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

“He died of his wounds on Sunday,” ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra said in a statement.

Dahdouh’s death brings to 15 the number of Palestinians killed in clashes with Israeli forces in the West Bank and Gaza Strip after the US move on December 6.
