Palestinian killed by Israeli fire in West Bank
Ramallah, Palestinian Territories – (AFP): A Palestinian died in the occupied West Bank Thursday after being shot in the stomach by Israeli forces, the Palestinian health ministry said, in the latest bloodshed in the territory.
The ministry said 27-year-old Mahmud Fayez Abu Ayhour was killed in Halhul, north of the flashpoint city of Hebron. The Israeli army told AFP it was checking the circumstances of the incident.
The Red Crescent had earlier reported several injuries following unrest in Halhul.
In recent weeks, the Israeli army has been conducting near daily raids across the West Bank, making multiple arrests in what they describe as “counter-terrorism activities”.
The most recent operation, conducted overnight, involved nine arrests, the army said.
Forty Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank — including an Al Jazeera journalist who was covering a raid in Jenin and bystanders.
