    (...) On Friday, 19 April 2019, the incidents were as follows:

    At approximately 16:00, thousands of civilians, including women, children and entire families, started swarming to the five encampments established by the Supreme National Authority of Great March of Return and Breaking the Siege adjacent to the border fence with Israel in eastern Gaza Strip cities.

    Hundreds of protesters, including children and women, gathered adjacent to the border fence with Israel in front of each encampment and its vicinity tens and hundreds of meters away from the fence. The protesters chanted slogans, raised flags, and in very limited incidents attempted to approach the border fence and throw stones at the Israeli forces.

    Although the protesters gathered in areas open to the Israeli snipers stationed on the top of the sand berms and military watchtowers and inside and behind the military jeeps, the Israeli forces fired live and rubber bullets in addition to a barrage of tear gas canisters. The Israeli shooting, which continued at around 19:00, resulted in the injury of 100 civilians, including 23 children, 5 women, 4 paramedics, and 4 journalists. Thirty-three of those wounded were hit with live bullets and shrapnel, 42 were directly hit with tear gas canisters and 13 were hit with rubber bullets. In addition, dozens of civilians suffered tear gas inhalation and seizures due to tear gas canisters that were fired by the Israeli forces from the military jeeps and riffles in the eastern Gaza Strip.

  • On Calmest Friday Since the beginning of Return and Breaking Siege March, Israeli Forces Wound 52 Civilians, including 6 Children, 1 Woman and 2 Being Seriously Wounded | Palestinian Center for Human Rights

    On Friday afternoon, 02 November 2018, Israeli forces wounded 52 Palestinian civilians, including 6 children, 1 woman, and 2 being seriously wounded, in the peaceful demonstrations in eastern Gaza Strip despite the decreasing intensity of the demonstrations there and absence of many means usually used during the demonstrations since the beginning of the Return and Breaking the Siege March 7 months ago.

    According to observations by PCHR’s fieldworkers, for the first time since the beginning of the Return March on 30 March 2018, the demonstrators abstained from setting fire to tires while almost completely the attempts to cross the border fence and throw stones and incendiary balloons were absent.

    Though the demonstrations were around tens of meters away from the border fence, the Israeli forces who were stationed in sniper positions and military jeeps along the fence continued to open fire and fire teargas canisters at the demonstrators. The fieldworkers noticed that the Israeli forces exceedingly decreased opening fire at the demonstrators and activated the use of rubber bullets, but heavily fired teargas canisters, causing hundreds teargas inhalation. Moreover, some of those canisters reached the vicinity of the two field medical points in Khan Younis and al-Bureij refugee camps.

    The relatively calm incidents translate the outcome of the Egyptian security delegation’s meeting with the Palestinian factions and Supreme National Authority of Great March of Return and Breaking the Siege which emphasized in a statement following the meeting held yesterday afternoon, 01 November 2018, in Gaza “the importance of maintaining the peaceful and popular nature of the demonstrations and their means that promote the national revitalization.” (...)
