Palestinian publicly sets himself on fire in Gaza

A 20-year-old Palestinian is in critical condition after publicly setting himself of fire in the Gaza Strip.

Motives for the self-immolation are unclear Sunday.

 

Family members say Fathi Harb set himself on fire Saturday in an act of desperation and protest over the dire living conditions in Gaza.

 

Hamas, the Islamic militant group that rules Gaza, cited personal issues for his actions.
