Israeli soldiers killed, Friday, a child and injured more than 110 Palestinians, including 11 who were shot with live rounds, after the army attacked nonviolent protesters in Jabal Abu Sbeih mountain in Beita town, south of the northern West Bank city of Nablus.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said the soldiers fatally shot Mohammad Sa’id Hamayel, 15, with a live round in the heart.
Medics tried to revive the child and rushed him to a hospital, but he succumbed to his serious wounds.
It added that the soldiers also shot eleven Palestinians with live rounds, 16 with the rubber-coated steel bullets, and caused 62 to suffer the effects of tear gas inhalation.
20 Palestinians were also injured; some of them after the soldiers attacked them with clubs and batons, and the others sustained cuts and bruises after tripping and falling while the soldiers were chasing them.
One medic was also injured after the soldiers shot him with a gas bomb, the PRCS stated.
It is worth mentioning that the Palestinians have been holding nonviolent processions in Jabal Abu Sbeih Mountain, where illegal Israeli colonialist settlers occupied their lands and installed an outpost.
In addition, the soldiers injured several Palestinians during a procession against the illegal Israeli colonies in Beit Dajan village, east of Nablus.
Medical sources said the soldiers shot eight Palestinians with rubber-coated steel bullets, and one with a high-velocity gas bomb in the leg, in addition to two others who sustained burns in the hands.
It is worth mentioning that the soldiers also shot a young man, 22 years of age, with a rubber-coated steel bullet in the head during protests in Silwad town, east of Ramallah, in central West Bank, and caused many to suffer the effects of teargas inhalation.
He was among dozens who were injured when the soldiers attacked a procession against the constant Israeli violations and demanding the release of the corpse of a young man who was killed by the army last month.
