The Palestinian Health Ministry confirmed that Israeli occupation forces shot Ahmad Amjad Shehadeh, 16, with a live bullet in the chest, killing him.
Large numbers of Israeli occupation forces, accompanied by a military bulldozer, stormed overnight Wednesday the eastern area of Nablus to secure the settlers’ raid into Joseph’s Tomb.

The Israeli forces also targeted a Palestinian Red Crescent ambulance with live bullets, local sources said.
After and during the raid, dozens of Israeli settlers raided the area of Joseph’s Tomb while being backed by well-armed Israeli forces.
Shehadeh is the 51st child to be killed by Israeli occupation forces since the start of the year, according to the Health Ministry.
