TEHRAN (Basirat) :Protests mark 70th anniversary of Nakba as Palestinians take part in burials following Monday's killings in Gaza.
Laila is the youngest fatality of the deadly demonstrations in Gaza on Monday
Laila Anwar al-Ghandour, an eight-month-old baby girl, died of tear-gas
inhalation at dawn, Gaza's Ministry of Health says, highlighting international
outrage over the killings by Israeli soldiers of 60 Palestinians who joined in a
massive protest against the opening of the US embassy in Jerusalem.
Laila was the youngest fatality of the demonstrations on Monday, which were held
in the run up to the 70th anniversary on Tuesday of the Nakba, or Catastrophe,
the day the state of Israel was established on May 15, 1948, forcing hundreds of
thousands of Palestinians from their homes.
