A Palestinian journalist shot by Israeli forces during a mass demonstration along the Gaza border has died of his wounds.
Yaser Murtaja, a photographer with the Gaza-based Ain Media agency, was shot in the stomach in Khuza'a in the south of the Gaza Strip on Friday, according to the Palestinian health ministry.
Murtaja, 30, was hit despite wearing a blue flak jacket marked with the word ''press'', indicating he was a journalist.
A vigil was held in the occupied West Bank to commemorate the life of Yaser Murtaja. Al Jazeera's Mohammed Jamjoon reports from the occupied West Bank.
