Palestinian Authority residents in Gaza and on social media have expressed outrage over the death of a naked man who was shot as he crossed from the Gaza Strip into Egypt, AFP reports.
Video has spread online purporting to show the man walking in the Mediterranean surf and crossing the posts and fencing marking the border
between the Palestinian Authority and Egypt. Egyptian guards open fire, while someone who appears to be part of the Gazan security forces appears to wave and signal to those shooting to stop because the man is mentally unstable.
The video, taken on Thursday, later shows the man's body on the shore. The Egyptian army has so far not commented on the incident.
