A citizen was killed, and 18 others were injured by live bullets, today, Friday, in a massive attack by armed colonists protected by the Israeli forces on the town of Al-Mughayir, northeast of Ramallah.

The Ministry of Health said that a martyr from the village of Al-Mughayir arrived at the Palestine Medical Complex in the city of Ramallah.

It added: “The total number of injuries that arrived at hospitals from the town of Al-Mughayir (east of Ramallah) was 18, varying from minor, moderate, and serious injuries.”
