Thousands protest on Gaza border fence
Gaza's Health Ministry says 26 Palestinians were wounded during a mass protest on the border with Israel.
Thousands gathered Monday on the beach along the border fence separating the Gaza Strip and Israel to demonstrate against Egypt and Israel's blockade.
The Israeli military says protesters burned tires and threw rocks and explosives at troops on the border, who responded with tear gas and live fire.
Hamas, the Islamic terror group ruling Gaza since 2007, has led weekly protests since March to lift the blockade that has crippled the territory's economy.
