Two Palestinians have died from their wounds after being shot Monday by Israeli occupation troops during protests in the Gaza Strip, the local health ministry said Saturday.

The two men killed were 20-year-old Mohammad Mazen Alyan and 58-year-old Moein Abdel-Hamid Al-Saai, the ministry said in a statement.

The ministry said Alyan was wounded east of the Al-Bureij refugee camp, while other medical sources reported Al-Saai was wounded to the east of Gaza City.
