BETHLEHEM (PIC)– IOF troops killed a Palestinian teenager in Bethlehem on Monday evening during an operation by special forces targeting the arrest of the Islamic Jihad wanted activist Mohammed Abda.
Medical sources in the city said that Qusai Al-Afandi 17 was hit with a bullet in his abdomen that killed him on the spot while five other youths were injured.
They said that one of the wounded was a 13-year-old boy who was hit with a live bullet in his neck and a rubber bullet in his left hand.
The young men were throwing stones at the heavily armed soldiers who responded by firing live and rubber-coated bullets at them.
Eyewitnesses reported that the IOF soldiers besieged a building in the city and fired at it bullets and projectiles before nabbing Abda.
