According to a report by Reuters, a Palestinian journalist after being wounded by Israeli gunfire, while covering the deadly protests taking place along the Israel-Gaza border. Thirty-year-old Yaser Murtaja, a cameraman for Palestinian Ain Media, was the 29th Palestinian killed this week. Palestinian health officials said a live bullet had penetrated the side of his abdomen and he later succumbed to his wounds in hospital.
