A Palestinian young man was shot dead at point-blank range by Israeli special forces on Monday morning during a raid on his home in Kafr Aqab town northeast of Occupied Jerusalem.
According to local sources Israeli soldiers broke into the house and cold-bloodedly shot 21-year-old Mohamed ash-Shaham in his head and then left him bleeding to death before bundling his body into a vehicle and driving off.
The young man’s father said that Israeli police forces barged into his house with intent to kill his son.
The incident came one day after a Palestinian young man opened fire at Jewish settlers near Jerusalem’s Old City wounding about nine of them. He was arrested later.
