The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced on Saturday evening that 41 Palestinians, including 10 children, were wounded by Israeli occupation forces east of Gaza City.

The ministry said in a statement, a copy of which obtained by Safa, that there are two injuries in a critical situation, one of them a 13-year-old child.

Safa correspondents reported that the occupation forces fired live bullets and tear gas canisters at young men near the security fence east of Gaza City.

The young men approached the security fence in conjunction with an event close to the area organized by the factions to commemorate the 52nd anniversary of the burning of the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Meanwhile, the participants condemned the continuous Israeli aggression against Al-Aqsa Mosque, the siege of Gaza, and the Israeli settlement in the West Bank, stressing that the resistance is ready to defend Jerusalem by all means.
