A Palestinian protester uses a slingshot to throw back a tear gas canister at Israeli forces following a demonstration near the fence along the border with Israel, east of Gaza City, Friday. Palestinian medical officials said that 20 Gazans were wounded by Israeli fire during weekly clashes on the border, while Israeli police said one officer was hurt by an explosive device. “Twenty injuries by the Israeli occupation forces with live ammunition,” the Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry said in a statement. The Israeli army said that 11,000 “rioters and demonstrators” gathered at several points along the border barrier, with people throwing rocks at soldiers and the fence, as well as “several explosive devices and grenades” aimed at the troops. — AFP
