Israel kills 2 in Syrian march at Golan

Israel, June 05: Israeli forces have killed two people and injured five more when hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters marched from Syria towards Golan Heights at the country’s border with Israel, a Syrian TV report says.

The protesters flocked to Golan border on “Naksa Day” to mark the 44th anniversary of the beginning of Israel’s 1967 Six-Day War against Arabs, Reuters reported on Sunday.

Thousands of Israeli security forces were also on high alert on Naksa Day, fearing possible unrest.
