Zionist occupation forces kill Palestinian in Al-Khalil

The Palestinian Health Ministry identified the man as 27-year-old Mahmoud Fayez Abu Ayhour.

Abu Ayhour arrived at Al-Mizan Hospital in critical condition just before 01.00 pm (10:00 GMT). He was announced dead 30 minutes later.

The Ministry statement said Abu Ayhour was shot in the stomach.

At least six Palestinians were also injured during the confrontations, including three with live bullets and two with rubber-coated bullets and all were transferred to hospital for treatment.

According to local sources, the zionist occupation army had raided Halhul three hours before the killing, shut down the main road, fired tear gas and carried out arrests.

The ZOF soldiers routinely raid Palestinian towns and villages in the West Bank, mainly to carry out arrests. At least 13 Palestinians were arrested earlier Thursday in the ZOF raids in various areas. (ILKHA)
