Israeli occupation forces shot a young man with live ammunition and arrested a woman on Thursday while attempting to confront a settler attack in the village of Al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah.

According to local sources, a young man was shot in the abdomen with live ammunition after being targeted by occupation soldiers in the Khalayel area, south of Al-Mughayyir, while confronting settlers who stormed the area and attacked the family of citizen Rizq Abu Naim.

The sources reported that the occupation forces arrested Fatima Abu Naim (30 years old), a resident of Al-Khalayel, who was attacked by the settlers.

The settlers attacked the family of Abu Naim, under the protection of the occupation army, and assaulted a female citizen.

Following this attack, a larger gathering of settlers was observed on the hill opposite the Khalayel area, while villagers were called upon to gather and support the Abu Naim family, fearing a wider attack.
