Two Palestinians, including a journalist, were injured on Thursday in the occupied West Bank when Israeli occupation forces assaulted them in the northern Jordan Valley.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society said its crews received the two men from Israeli soldiers after they were assaulted in the Ras Al Ahmar area of the northern Jordan Valley.
The injured Palestinians, one of whom was journalist Mo’ath Ghannam, suffered bruises resulting from the attack and were transferred to a hospital for treatment.
According to family sources, Israeli forces had earlier detained the two men while they were documenting and covering ongoing Israeli bulldozing operations in the area.
Earlier in the day, illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers, accompanied by Israeli soldiers, assaulted and detained several activists, journalists, and solidarity volunteers in Ras Al Ahmar.
With the latest assault, the number of injured individuals in the area on Thursday rose to three, including journalist Ghannam.
Also Thursday, Israeli occupation forces carried out multiple invasions across the occupied West Bank, breaking into homes and abducting Palestinians in Tubas in the northeastern West Bank, Ramallah in the central West Bank, Nablus in the northern West Bank, Qalqilia in the northwestern West Bank, and Hebron in the southern West Bank.
At dawn, a Palestinian man was killed when Israeli occupation forces invaded the village of Sarta, west of Salfit in the central West Bank, detonated the front door of his home, and shot him while he was sleeping after returning from work.
The slain man, identified as 32‑year‑old Mustafa Taha Mustafa Al‑Khatib, was killed after Israeli soldiers detonated the door, broke into his house, and opened fire directly at him.
