17 yrs old Gazan shot by IDF during attempted border breach die of wounds

That was the 3rd Gaza border breach attempt in the last 24 hrs: Abdel Fattah Abu Azoum (17) who was shot while trying to breach the Gaza security fence earlier today died of his wounds short time ago, according to the Hamas health ministry. Before dawn on Thursday he and another Palestinian man attempted to break through the security fence east of Rafah in southern Gaza. In response, IDF tank fired toward them and prevented the infiltration attempt, according to the IDF. According to the Gaza health ministry, Azoum sustained a serious head wound. He was taken to a nearby hospital and was pronounced dead several hours later. The Palestinian Quds news outlet initially reported that the two were seriously injured by the tank fire. Other Gaza-based news sites reported that only one of the suspects was seriously injured. When IDF troops later searched the area, they found a number of Molotov cocktails. Throughout Wednesday, the IDF thwarted two other border breaches along the Gaza security fence, shooting at the infiltrators and injuring 4-5 of them, according to Palestinian media.
