Friday 7-August-2020

The Palestinian young woman Dalia Samoudi 23 was pronounced dead on Friday afternoon a few hours after she was shot by Israeli occupation forces (IOF) during a dawn raid on Jenin district in the West Bank.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health said that Samoudi who was inside her home when the IOF stormed Jenin and attacked local residents with live ammunition and tear gas canisters was shot in the chest and immediately rushed to the hospital in critical condition.

Samoudi was admitted to the intensive care unit where she underwent a major surgery but the doctors could not save her and she died in the afternoon.

The IOF at daybreak raided al-Jabriyat neighborhood in Jenin broke into several Palestinian homes and searched them amid heavy firing of live ammunition tear gas canisters and stun grenades.

The martyr’s family said that Samoudi woke up at dawn to feed her new-born baby and when she heard the clashes she rushed to close the window to protect her infant from the tear gas before an IOF-fired live bullet hit her in the chest.
