Palestinian Youth Killed by Israeli Forces in Tulkarm Refugee Camp.


TULKARM: A Palestinian youth was killed after being shot by Israeli occupation forces in Tulkarm refugee camp. The Red Crescent Society reported that its crews were able to transfer Harith Muhammad Awfi, 22, from inside the camp to the Martyr Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital in the city.

According to Palestine News and Information Agency – WAFA, eyewitnesses inside the camp said that Awfi was injured while he was in one of the camp’s courtyards by an Israeli sniper’s bullets stationed in one of the houses, which hit him in the heart. They added that he was later transferred by ambulance volunteers outside the camp and handed over to a Red Crescent ambulance, as the occupation prevented it from entering the camp.

An occupation drone bombed sites in the camp twice this morning, resulting in five citizens being injured by shrapnel, one of whom was a woman and her disabled son.
