Iranian foreign minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, in a message on Sunday slammed the killing of a Palestinian medic in Gaza Strip by Israeli army snipers.

“In a week when Israeli regime airs an absurd message to Iranians while its US patrons veto a resolution condemning its use of deadly force against unarmed protestors, its snipers murder a Palestinian medic tending to the wounded. Shame upon shame,” Zarif wrote in his Twitter account.

“Witnesses say she was trying to help a wounded protestor at the Gaza-Israel border fence,” according to a video released by the YouTube website.

“She was one of the first female medical volunteers to treat protestors at the weekly demonstrations,” according to the video. Some 121 Palestinians have so far been killed and over 13,300 others injured during the March of Return protests Since March 30 in Gaza.

According to Palestinian sources, Razan Al-Najjar was shot dead by the Israeli forces in the tenth week of the March of Return protests at Gaza border.
