Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) shot dead on Tuesday afternoon a Palestinian young man at Jaba military checkpoint near Ramallah after an alleged stabbing attempt according to Israeli TV channel seven.
The Palestinian Health Ministry revealed in a terse statement that 23-year-old Bahaa’ al-Hirbawi from Alezariya in Occupied Jerusalem was killed by Israeli gunfire at an IOF barrier northeast of Occupied Jerusalem.
The number of Palestinians killed at the hands of IOF soldiers since the eruption of the Jerusalem intifada in early October 2015 thus reached 326.
Meanwhile the PIC reporter in Occupied Jerusalem said that IOF soldiers broke into the home of Hirbawi in Alezariya and arrested his father.
