Palestinian teen shot dead during Hebron clashes with Israeli troops
2022-08-11
[IsraelTimes] Two others said maimed by live fire in skirmishes, hours after 3 turbans killed during IDF operation in Nablus; 2 settlers lightly injured by stones thrown at their cars nearby

A Paleostinian teen was killed and two others were maimed on Tuesday during festivities with IDF soldiers in the West Bank city of Hebron, Paleostinian media reported.

The Paleostinian Authority Health Ministry identified the victim as 17-year-old Moemen Yassin Jaber, who had been rushed to the hospital at death's door after taking a live bullet to the chest. The teen departed this vale of tears shortly thereafter.

The official Paleostinian Authority Wafa news agency reported that a 15-year-old and another unidentified individual were maimed during the festivities. The report did not specify whether the casualties were armed.

The IDF did not immediately issue a statement on the matter.

Near the location of the clash, two Israeli settlers were lightly injured when Paleostinians hurled stones at their vehicles, according to the Ynet news site.

The Hebron festivities came hours after three armed Paleostinians were killed during an Israeli counterterrorism raid in the West Bank city of Nablus.

During the operation, Ibrahim Nabulsi, a wanted al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades operative, was killed.

In separate raids across the West Bank overnight, troops detained four wanted Paleostinians, the IDF said Tuesday morning.
