Israeli colonizers shot two Palestinian young men and assaulted two others on Saturday, after storming the village of Kisan, south of Bethlehem in the southern occupied West Bank.

Musa Abayat, the head of the Kisan village council, told the WAFA News Agency that a group of armed settlers infiltrated Kisan village Saturday morning, firing live rounds towards Palestinian citizens and assaulting a number of them.


Abayat added that two citizens sustained live gunshot wounds, while two others suffered injuries as a result of physical assault, describing their conditions as moderate. The settlers also stole approximately 100 sheep belonging to the citizen Attallah Ibrahim Abayat.

For its part, the Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) reported that its ambulance crews transported two citizens (39 and 52) to the hospital after they sustained live gunshot wounds to their lower limbs.

It added that occupation forces blocked its ambulance crews from approaching a number of wounded citizens in need of treatment.
