On Thursday evening, Israeli soldiers shot two young men in Beit Ummar town, north of Hebron, in the occupied West Bank’s southern part.
Local media activist Mohammad Ayyad Awad said several army jeeps invaded the town, especially the area near the Somoud Mosque, leading to protests before the soldiers fired many live rounds, rubber-coated steel bullets, and gas bombs.
