July 3 (EUROPA PRESS) –
A Palestinian has died this Sunday due to gunshot wounds received on Saturday in clashes with Israeli security forces in the Jenin area, in the West Bank.
The 19-year-old young man has been identified as Kamel Abdalá Alwané, who was injured in the town of Yabaa, south of Jenin, according to the director of the Ibn Sina Hospital in Jenin, Yani abu Yoja, quoted by the news agency Palestinian news WAFA.
Kamel was named after his late brother, who was also shot dead by Israeli security forces in 2003.
The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has condemned the “assassination” of Alwané by the Israeli Army, “one more of the crimes committed daily by the Israeli occupation forces against the Palestinian people.” Thus, he recalled that the Israeli Army and police have killed 78 Palestinians so far this year.
The Ministry has held the Israeli authorities responsible for these “crimes” and their repercussions in the context of the conflict and has asked the International Criminal Court (ICC) to “break its silence” and issue arrest warrants against “criminals and murderers” and who is behind
On the other hand, Israeli troops have wounded a Palestinian youth in the north of the city of Jericho this Sunday, according to the general supervisor of the Al Baidar Bedouin Defense Organization, Hasan Mleihat, who has pointed out specifically the Israeli forces deployed at the Hamra checkpoint for injuring Ayed Nayef Kabané, 25 years old.
In addition, local sources cited by WAFA have reported that Israeli settlers have “brutally” assaulted an elderly Palestinian near Tulkarem, specifically in the village of Kafer al Labad.
Eyewitnesses have recounted that a group of Jewish settlers armed with rifles brutally assaulted Mustafa Hussein Fuqaha, 70, when he was on his own land outside the village. The elderly man has bruises and bone fractures and has been taken to Tulkarem Thabet Thabet Public Hospital for medical assistance.
The Palestinian’s family has explained that this is just the latest in a series of attacks against Palestinian farmers.
The West Bank –including East Jerusalem– and the Gaza Strip –from which Israel withdrew in 2005– were militarily occupied by Israel in the 1967 war along with the Golan Heights –in dispute with Syria–.
In total, some 700,000 Jewish settlers live in the West Bank, some in settlements considered legal by Israel and some in settlements considered illegal even by the Israeli government.
