Nearly 50 Palestinians were injured during demonstrations at the Gaza border to mark 71 years since the Al-Nakba on Wednesday.

Al Nakba or 'Day of Catastrophe' is marked every year on May 15 in commemoration of the expulsion of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians before and after the establishment of Israel in 1948.
