The rioter, 21-year-old Walid a-Sharif, is being called a “martyr” by Arab media and was identified by Gaza’s ruling Hamas terrorist organization as a member of its ranks.
A-Sharif was shot with a rubber bullet by police officers during the riot. However, police said the rioter fell and hit his head while hurling rocks, resulting in a serious head injury.

Expect more riots in the near future.
