Palestinian demonstrators on Friday converged along the Gaza-Israel buffer zone to take part in ongoing rallies against Israel's decades-long occupation.
According to Gaza's National Authority for Breaking the Siege (NABS), Friday's rally is being held under the slogan, "Compassion and solidarity".
Demonstrators demand an end to Israel's 12-year blockade of the Gaza Strip, which has gutted the coastal enclave's economy and deprived its two million inhabitants of many basic commodities.
