A Palestinian was shot dead in Gaza by the Israeli army on Friday, the health ministry said, the first person killed in clashes over US President Donald Trump's planned embassy move.

The health ministry confirmed Mahmoud al-Masri, 30, was killed in clashes along the Israeli-Gaza border.

The Israeli army confirmed it had shot two people along the border, accusing them of being "main instigators" of "violent riots."
