Awake Goy RT’s livestream from the Israeli side of the border looks into Gaza and Bureij and shows crowds of protesters gathering behind burning tires.
A 25 year old man died earlier this morning after he being shot east of Jabalya, according to Gaza’s Ministry of Health as cited by local media. Later, a 24 year old man was reportedly shot dead by Israeli fire in the northern Gaza strip.
According to the IDF, some 3,000 Palestinian protesters are taking part in Friday’s demonstrations, the Times of Israel reports.
The six-week protest began on March 30 and is due to continue until May 15, the anniversary of Nakba, which Palestinians refer to as the mass exodus from their land during the establishment of the state of Israel. Israelis celebrate this as Independence Day.
To date, at least 35 Palestinians have been killed and thousands wounded by Israeli gunfire.

Last Friday’s protests left one person dead and more than 150 injured – 63 of those hit by live ammunition, according to the Palestine Red Crescent Society.
Doctors Without Borders (MSF), said in a statement Thursday that it had treated more wounded people in Gaza in the past three weeks than it had throughout all of 2014 – the year of the last war in Gaza. It confirmed it had provided post-operative care to more than 500 people injured by gunshots.
The medical organization added it was prepared to face a possible new influx of wounded this Friday. No Israeli casualties have been reported in the demonstrations.
Meanwhile, the Israeli Defence Forces have reportedly scattered leaflets in Gaza ahead of Friday’s protests, warning residents to stay away from the fence and threatening action against those who cause damage or carry out violence.
“You are participating in violent disturbances. Hamas is taking advantage of you to carry out terrorist attacks. The IDF is prepared for any scenario. Stay away from the fence and do not attempt to damage it,” the leaflets read, according to Haaretz.
