Health Ministry Reports Death of Palestinian Teen from Israeli Gunfire in Dheisheh Camp

Bethlehem: A Palestinian teenager succumbed on Friday night to wounds he sustained earlier in the day from Israeli occupation forces' gunfire in Dheisheh refugee camp, south of Bethlehem.

According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, the Ministry of Health confirmed that 15-year-old Adham Sayed Saleh Dahman succumbed to critical injuries he sustained from Israeli forces' gunfire during a military raid on the camp earlier today.

In a previous statement, the Ministry stated that Dahman arrived at the hospital in critical condition after being shot in the abdomen during an Israeli military raid on Dheisheh camp.

With Dahman's killing, the number of those killed in the West Bank today rises to three, after two young men were killed by Israeli occupation forces' live fire earlier in Qalandiya refugee camp, north of occupied Jerusalem.

Another citizen was also injured during the raid on Dheisheh camp and was transferred to the hospital for treatment.
