West Bank: 7 Palestinians killed and 11 injuries as a result of Israeli aggression on the town of Qabatiya

The Israeli occupation forces' aggression on the town of Qabatiya, south of Jenin, which lasted for about 10 hours, resulted in the death of seven young men and the injury of 11 others with live bullets.


The number of dead rose to seven, after the Palestinian Red Crescent crews were able to retrieve the body of the young man, Shadi Sami Zakarneh, from inside a house that was surrounded by Israeli special forces "undercover" in the afternoon.


Earlier, two young men were killed and a young man and a child were injured by Israeli occupation forces' bullets and by a drone attack with a missile near the cafe complex in the center of the town.


The medical teams at the town's emergency center also announced the death of another young man who succumbed to his wounds from the occupation's bullets near the town's entrance.


Three young men were martyred after being shot with live bullets, and 10 others were injured, including two in a run-over attack during the occupation's aggression on Qabatiya.


Video clips on social media showed scenes of the occupation army mutilating the bodies of the three victims, throwing them from the roof of the house where they were besieged, before a military bulldozer sank its teeth into their bodies and transported them to detention.


The occupation forces had fired bullets at the three young men, prevented the Red Crescent crews from reaching them, and bombed the house with a number of Energa shells, which led to their martyrdom.


Qabatiya Municipality mourned in a statement the seven dead: Muhammad Khaled Abu al-Rab, Omar Hamza Abu al-Rab, Ahmad Maher Zakarneh, Mustafa Faisal Zakarneh, Fadi Jawdat Hanaysha, Muhammad Omar Kamil, and Shadi Sami Zakarneh.


It stressed that "the occupation's execution of the seven dead constitutes a massacre and a new crime committed by the occupation in light of the shameful silence of the international community."
