Thursday 20-August-2020

At least 11 Palestinian citizens suffered bullet injuries on Wednesday evening when the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) attacked them in Ramallah.

According to the Hebrew website 0404 Israeli soldiers opened fire at three young men as they were torching tires on Road 465 near Deir Abu Masha’al village in Ramallah and injured one of them seriously.

Israeli news reports claimed the wounded young man died of a serious injury but there was no confirmation in this regard by the Palestinian medical or security authorities.

For its part the Red Crescent said its ambulance crews provided assistance for two young men after they were wounded by Israeli gunfire in Deir Abu Masha’al clashes and affirmed that another wounded young man was detained by soldiers.

Earlier at least eight Palestinians suffered injuries from live and rubber bullets when the IOF attacked the participants in a national event against normalization and annexation held in Turmus Ayya town north of Ramallah. Many others also suffered from their exposure to tear gas fumes.
