An elderly Palestinian was injured by the occupation forces’ bullets in Tulkarm camp
This evening, Wednesday, an elderly man was injured by Israeli occupation army bullets in Tulkarm camp.
The Red Crescent Society in the governorate stated that its crews dealt with a live bullet injury to an elderly man (70 years old) in the feet, from the Al-Akasha neighborhood in the camp.
It added that the occupation forces detained the injured man while he was being transported with the medical staff to the entrance of the Martyr Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital.
This afternoon, two citizens were injured by the occupation snipers’ bullets in the camp. One of them was a 54-year-old man who was shot with live bullet shrapnel in the head, and the other was a 52-year-old man who was shot in the abdomen. They were transported by Red Crescent ambulances to the hospital.
During the ongoing aggression on the city and camp of Tulkarm for three days, 15 citizens were injured by occupation bullets and shrapnel, concentrated in the lower limbs. The most serious injury was to a child who was shot in the chest in the western neighborhood of the city. He was transferred to Nablus hospitals to complete treatment.
The occupation forces continue to impose a tight siege on the Martyr Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital and the Israa Specialized Hospital, and turn their surroundings into closed military zones, after seizing citizens’ homes and turning them into military barracks. Soldiers also distributed threatening and inciting leaflets inside the emergency yards of the two hospitals.
Our correspondent said that the occupation forces obstructed the work of ambulances and their crews, stopped them, searched them, checked the identities of their passengers, both crews and patients, and investigated those who wanted to enter or leave hospitals, as well as physically searched them.
The occupation forces continue their aggression on Tulkarm camp, besieging all its neighborhoods and deploying foot patrols in the streets and alleys, with snipers deployed inside homes, who fire directly at citizens, while destroying the infrastructure and public and private property in it, and forcing citizens to leave it by force.
