October 3, 2018 - Family and friends give their farewell to 15 years-old Ahmed Samir Abu Habel at the Indonesian hospital in the north of the Gaza Strip. Ahmed died after being hit in the head by a tear gas canister fired by soldiers near the Erez checkpoint during clashes between Palestinian protestors and the Israeli Security Forces on 3rd October 2018. The demonstration took place at the Erez crossing near the northern Gaza town of Beit Hanoun where Palestinians protested against the 11-year-long Israeli blockade to the Palestinian enclave as well as the recent decision by the US administration to stop their funding to UNRWA, the UN relief agency for Palestinian refugees. Gaza Health Ministry has stated that another 15 Palestinians were also injured during the clashes by the tear gas and live ammunitions fired at demonstrators by Israeli soldiers. According to the Israeli Army some Palestinians threw rocks and makeshift explosive devices at them (Credit Image: © Ahmad Hasaballah/IMAGESLIVE via ZUMA Wire)
