Gaza govt: Egyptian army killed Palestinian in cold blood


(MENAFN- The Journal Of Turkish Weekly) The Ministry of Interior in Gaza accused the Egyptian army of killing a Palestinian youth who attempted to cross from Gaza into Egypt through the Rafah naval border.

Aljazeera broadcast a video Friday that showed a completely naked Palestinian youth being shot at multiple times by Egyptian army officers.

The video which was reportedly filmed on Thursday also shows a Palestinian security personnel asking Egyptian forces not to shoot and signaling to them that the youth suffers from a mental disorder.

The ministry condemned the incident calling it a “cold-blooded execution.”

Egypt has tightened its grip on the border with the blockaded Gaza Strip since the 2013 coup against President Mohamed Morsi.
