On Tuesday, Israeli forces killed a former prisoner and injured a paramedic who was attempting to reach the slain man, in the town of Tammun, south of Tubas in the northeastern part of the occupied West Bank.
According to the Shireen Observatory, Israeli forces shot and killed the former prisoner, Rayeq Abdul Rahman Sadiq Basharat, 47, before confiscating his body.
Media sources said that undercover Israeli agents (Musta’ribeen) infiltrated Tammun town on Tuesday night, driving in a civilian vehicle with Palestinian licence plates, followed by military reinforcements.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) reported that Israeli forces prevented their ambulance crews from approaching the injured man, and opened fire with live rounds causing one of its paramedics to suffer from shrapnel injuries.
Media sources added that soldiers invaded and searched several citizens’ homes in the town, amid the overhead flight of a helicopter and reconnaissance drones.
