One killed in Gaza by Egypt border guards
An Egyptian army vehicle patrols along the border with the Gaza Strip on November 4, 2014.
At least one Palestinian has been killed in the frontier town of Rafah in the illegally besieged Gaza Strip by Egyptian soldiers firing from across the border, sources say.
“A Palestinian citizen, aged 23, was killed by Egyptian army fire on the Egyptian-Palestinian border and the security agencies are investigating the incident to find out the motives,” Gaza’s Interior Ministry spokesman Iyad al-Bazm said in a message on his Facebook page on Friday.
Zionist puppet Sisi forces shot the unnamed man “in the back and the bullet settled in the heart. He died on the spot,” Gaza’s emergency services spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra said.
On Tuesday, Zionist Sisi regime said they would double the width of a security buffer zone currently under construction along the Gaza border, claiming that the move will prevent Gazan’s from entering Egypt.
Zionist puppet Sisi has also stepped up surveillance of activities through the tunnels into Gaza since Mohamed Morsi, the country’s first democratically elected president, was ousted in a coup in July 2013.
More than 1,600 tunnels have been destroyed since the military-Mossad backed government came to power in Cairo last year.
The underground routes are the only lifeline for Gazans living under the Nazi blockade. Palestinians use the tunnels to bring essential supplies, such as foodstuff, cooking gas, medicines, petrol and livestock into the impoverished land.
