Middle East: 16-year-old apparently killed in Israeli military operation

The situation in the occupied West Bank has been very tense for months. Now, according to Palestinian information, a youth has been killed – by a shot in the head.

According to Palestinian sources, a 16-year-old was shot dead during an Israeli military operation in the occupied West Bank.

The youth was shot in the head in the city of Nablus, according to the Ramallah Ministry of Health. According to this, four Palestinians have already died in operations by the Israeli army this year.

According to the Israeli military, the soldiers were shot at when two suspects were arrested in Nablus. The armed forces then returned fire.

The situation in the occupied West Bank has been very tense for months. Since the beginning of a wave of terror last spring, Israel’s army has been carrying out increased raids there. Deadly confrontations occur again and again.

According to the Ministry of Health, 172 Palestinians were killed last year in connection with military operations or their own attacks – more than at any time since 2006. The ministry last reported on Tuesday about the death of a 15-year-old in a town south of Bethlehem.
