B'Tselem's account
Shot in the head by Israeli security forces during the Return Protests near the Gaza perimeter fence, east of Jabalya R.C.; thousands took part in the protests. During the protest, some of the demonstrators torched tires and threw stones at Israeli security forces stationed on the other side of the fence. B’Tselem’s investigation and video footage aired by the media indicate that Ayub was about 200 meters away from the fence when teargas was fired at that area. He fled from there, without moving any nearer to the fence, and was then shot and killed.
