Israeli occupation forces (IOF) killed a Palestinian teenager and injured dozens others during raids throughout the West Bank on Wednesday evening to quell solidarity events with Shuafat refugee camp in Occupied Jerusalem which has been under siege and constant attacks by the IOF over the past five days.

The Palestinian Health Ministry declared that Osama Mahmoud Adawi 18 was killed after being shot in his abdomen by IOF soldiers in Al-Aroub refugee camp north of al-Khalil.

Two other boys were seriously injured in the refugee camp while dozens suffered from teargas inhalation.

In Huwara town in Nablus a Palestinian and his son were assaulted by IOF soldiers local sources said adding that the father was injured and his son was arrested.

Clashes erupted after the IOF stormed the town and closed all local stores the sources added.

Jewish settler groups earlier attacked the town and stoned Palestinian vehicles under the IOF protection.

Meanwhile the advisor of the Palestinian Presidential Office for Jerusalem Affairs Ahmed Al-Ruwaidi was injured and two others were arrested after the IOF violently suppressed a solidarity vigil in support of the people of Shuafat camp.

In Bethlehem a Palestinian youth was shot in the eye by a rubber-coated metal bullet when clashes broke out at the northern entrance of the city.

Another young man was shot and seriously injured in his chest during Al-Bireh clashes.

Along the same line a group of settlers stormed Beit Ummar town chanting anti-Arab slogans.

In Occupied Jerusalem clashes erupted in Silwan town after being stormed by Israeli police forces amid heavy firing of teargas bombs.

A general strike was declared throughout Nablus since the early morning hours in response to the Arin al-Osoud (Lion’s Den) armed group’s call for mobilization.

Earlier Tuesday the Arin al-Osoud announced that there would be “a day of general mobilization and a general strike and a day of widespread clashes in every flashpoint in the West Bank on Wednesday” in solidarity with its besieged compatriots in Shuafat refugee camp.
