Palestinian child killed by Israeli forces in Nablus raid
Nablus (QNN)- A 16-year-old Palestinian boy was shot and killed by Israeli occupation forces during a furious raid into the eastern neighborhood of Nablus, north of the occupied West Bank, last night.
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.
