Palestinian youth fatally shot by zionist forces in Bethlehem

The Palestinian Health Ministry has identified the martyr as 20-year-old Zakaria Muhammad Zakaria Al-Za'oul, who suffered a fatal gunshot wound to the head.

Rami Hamamreh, the Head of Husan Village Council, confirmed that Israeli forces entered the town, employing excessive live fire and tear gas bombs, triggering a violent confrontation. The clashes escalated, leading to the tragic shooting of a young man in the head, ultimately resulting in his death at a nearby hospital.

Medical sources reported that two additional young men were wounded during the clashes, while a third person was apprehended by zionist occupation forces.

This incident comes on the heels of earlier violence on Monday, where at least five Palestinians, including a 15-year-old, were killed when israeli forces, supported by helicopters, targeted the Jenin refugee camp in the West Bank. (ILKHA)
