On Monday, Israeli soldiers shot and seriously injured a young Palestinian man in Bethlehem, south of the occupied capital, Jerusalem, in the West Bank.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) reported that the soldiers shot the young man with a live round in the thigh, causing a serious injury and excessive bleeding.

The young man was shot after several military vehicles invaded the area and fired live rounds to force the Palestinians to leave.

On Monday dawn, Israeli soldiers invaded several parts of the occupied West Bank, stormed and violently searched homes, and abducted at least fourteen Palestinians, including children.

Earlier Monday dawn, groups of illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers burned twenty-one Palestinian cars in Al-Bireh city and Deir Dibwan town, in the Ramallah and Al-Bireh governorate, in the occupied West Bank’s central part.
