26-year-old Muhammad, from Al Am’ari refugee camp in Ramallah, succumbed to wounds he sustained after being shot by the Israeli forces during a raid on the Al Bireh town.
He was rushed to a hospital to get urgent medical treatment and to save his life. However, he was announced dead, hours later.
The Palestinian Health Ministry reported the Israeli occupation forces shot Abbas in the back.
Following Abbas’s death, dozens of peaceful Palestinians demonstrated against his killing. However, the occupation forces brutally dispersed the demonstrations.
Israeli forces killing of Abbas came just one day after their killing of 22-year-old Hekmat Abdul Aziz Musa, from the village of Mirka, as the forces fired gunshots at his vehicle’s fuel tank at the military checkpoint of Dothan, near Ya’bad town, in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin. He was burnt alive as a result of the explosion of his vehicle’s fuel tank, and his body was confiscated by the Israeli occupation forces.
