Seventeen Palestinians were injured by Israeli fire during the 82nd Friday of the marches of return and breaking the siege on the borders of the Gaza Strip.

Palestinian sources said that among the 29 wounded by live bullets, one of them described his condition critical, while the rest rubber bullets and suffocation.

This was the 82nd Friday of the return marches demanding the right of return of Palestinian refugees, and lifting the Israeli blockade imposed on the Gaza Strip for more than 12 years.

This week's protests bore the slogan "Keepers" marching, while the name "Renewal of the mandate of UNRWA" will be called before the UN General Assembly vote to renew its mandate next week.
