OCCUPIED JERUSALEM (PIC)– The Palestinian driver of a tractor was shot dead Thursday afternoon in the Malha suburb of Jerusalem after he rammed a police car and an empty bus.
The second Israeli tv channel said that the Palestinian driver rammed the car and the bus deliberately wounding two policemen.
The Haaretz newspaper said that the driver hit the police car then hit a bus before a policeman and a taxi driver shot him dead.
Some eyewitnesses said that the tractor skidded and it was an accident and not an attack.
The Israeli occupation has been escalating its efforts of ethnically cleansing occupied Jerusalem lately. Israeli occupation plans to demolish Palestinian homes in the Silwan neighbourhood near the Aqsa Mosque and relocating 1500 Palestinians residing in the neighbourhood and the revelation of two new tunnels under the Aqsa Mosque raises fears of the Mosque being harmed.
