One Palestinian youth was shot dead by Israeli occupation forces in Ramallah

A young man was killed this morning, Tuesday, after being shot by the Israeli occupation forces during their raid on the cities of Ramallah and Al-Bireh at dawn.


Medical and local sources reported that the young man, Moataz Sarsour, from Al-Amari camp, was critically injured by the occupation forces’ bullets in the chest, and was transferred to the Palestine Medical Complex, where doctors announced his death from his injuries.


The occupation forces stormed the Al-Tira neighborhood in the city of Ramallah and raided a residential building that included an apartment for the detainee Dr. Ayser Barghouthi, and the Umm Al-Sharait neighborhood in Al-Bireh and raided a residential building that included an apartment for the detainee Dr. Khaled Al-Kharouf, before blowing up the two apartments.


Clashes erupted in the neighborhoods of Al-Tira and Umm Al-Sharait, during which the occupation soldiers fired bullets and tear gas canisters, which led to four young men being injured by bullets, including the martyr Sarsour, and a young man who was run over by a military vehicle.


With the death of the young man Sarsour, the death toll in the West Bank has risen to 624 since October 7, 2023, including 145 children and 9 women.
