72 Palestinians killed since October 1

72 Palestinians have been murdered by Israeli gun fire since the outbreak of Quds Intifada on October 1, the Palestinian Forum for Israeli Studies said.

The Intifada was named after Quds since it started amid the Israeli aggression against and desecration of the sacred al-Aqsa mosque in the sacred occupied city of Quds.

Over the past month, 24 Palestinians were shot dead in al-Khalil while 18 others were killed in occupied al-Quds ('Jerusalem'). 14 children and five girls were among the reported victims, the sources added.

The martyrs also include 24 martyrs under the age of 24.

Meanwhile, Israel continues to detain the bodies of 25 Palestinians who were shot dead for allegedly carrying out stabbing attacks while five bodies were delivered to their families on Friday.
