Two Palestinians killed and two wounded by Israeli forces east of Tulkarm
Two young men were killed and a young man and a child were injured by Israeli occupation forces' bullets, on Wednesday evening, during their siege of a house in the Ezbet al-Jarad suburb, east of Tulkarm city.
Local sources announced the death of the two young men, Mamoun Saleh Shraim and Thaer Omar Amara (38 years old), and the occupation’s detention of their bodies after withdrawing from the area.
In turn, the Palestinian Red Crescent Society stated that its crews dealt with an injury to a child (two years old) with a bullet fragment in the head, and a citizen (30 years old) with a live bullet in the shoulder, and they were transferred to the Martyr Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital, and their condition was described as stable.
Local sources reported that the injured child is the son of Thaer Amara, who was with his father when the occupation targeted him with bullets and "Energa" shells.
A large force of the occupation army surrounded the house of the Shreim family in Al-Ezba, amidst live bullets and "Energa" shells fired towards the house, with intensive flying of reconnaissance aircraft at a low altitude.
The occupation forces also sent more vehicles to the estate, imposed a military cordon on all its entrances, and prevented citizens and vehicles from passing.
It added that after a two-hour siege and the withdrawal of the occupation forces, the ambulance crews were able to enter the house where they found traces of blood.
The Israeli occupation forces stormed the city of Tulkarm from its western and southern entrances, coinciding with the discovery of a special force from the occupation army in the suburb of Ezbet al-Jarad, east of the city.
It is noteworthy that the martyr Mamoun Shraim from Tulkarm city is the brother of Mansour Shraim, who has been detained in the occupation prisons since 2002, and who was sentenced to 14 life sentences and 50 years. As for the martyr Thaer Amara from Tulkarm camp, he is a freed prisoner who spent 15 years in the occupation prisons, and was released in August 2021.
The Fatah Movement in Tulkarm and all the national action factions mourned the martyrs Shraim and Amara, and denounced the ongoing massacres of the occupation against our patient, steadfast and steadfast people on their land, and declared general mourning for their souls and the souls of all the martyrs of Palestine.
With the death of the two young men, Shraim and Amara, the number of martyrs in the West Bank since October 7, 2023, has risen to 783 martyrs, including 167 children.
