Jewish settlers kill Palestinian teen in West Bank
JERUSALEM (AA): A 19-year-old Palestinian was killed in a raid by Jewish settlers on the village of Burqa, Palestinian state news agency WAFA reported Friday.
The Palestinian Health Ministry announced that Qusai Jamal Maatan was shot dead by settlers who stormed the village, which is located east of Ramallah.
The settlers also brought animals with them to show that they wanted to establish a settlement by confiscating Palestinian land in the region, WAFA said.
In a message of condolence, the Palestinian resistance group Hamas called on Palestinians to mobilize to counter the attacks of Jewish settlers.
The Palestinian Foreign Ministry also issued a statement condemning the attacks carried out by settlers on Palestinians in Burqa.
Since the beginning of this year, the West Bank has been witnessing frequent raids and attacks by Jewish settlers under the protection of Israeli forces.
