Israeli forces assassinated two Palestinian young men, and injured two others, on Wednesday, after besieging and bombing a citizen’s home in the Ezbet al-Jarad suburb, east of Tulkarem in the northwestern part of the West Bank.
Media sources said that occupation forces executed the two former prisoners, Mamoun Saleh Shraim and Thaer Omar Amara, 38, after targeting the besieged home with many live rounds and “Energa” anti-tank grenades.
Sources added that an undercover Israeli unit infiltrated the city, before a large army force invaded the city from its western and southern entrances, besieging the Shraim family home, while reconnaissance drones hovered overhead.
Soldiers called over loudspeakers demanding the young men inside the home to surrender themselves, coinciding with heavy gunfire.
Occupation forces confiscated the bodies of the slain young men before withdrawing from the city after a two-hour siege.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said that its ambulance crews transported two injured citizens, including a child to the Martyr Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital in stable condition.
The PRCS added that a 2-year-old child sustained a shrapnel injury in the head, in addition to a 30-year-old citizen who sustained a live round in the shoulder.
Sources added that injured child is the son of the slain Thaer Amara, while he was with his father when the army targeted them with live rounds and “Energa” anti-tank grenades.
