Israeli occupation soldiers shot and injured a Palestinian child on Sunday morning during an invasion of Beit Furik, east of Nablus in the northern occupied West Bank.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said its medical crews treated a 14‑year‑old boy who was struck with live ammunition in the leg when Israeli soldiers invaded the town.
The PRCS added that its paramedics evacuated the child to a hospital in Nablus for further treatment, and his condition was described as stable.
Residents reported that Israeli forces entered the town with several military vehicles, triggering protests in the eastern neighborhoods. Soldiers fired live rounds and tear‑gas canisters before withdrawing.
Beit Furik has experienced repeated invasions in recent months, including several incidents in which children were shot with live ammunition during similar military operations.
Earlier Sunday, Israeli forces carried out a series of wide‑ranging invasions across the West Bank, breaking into homes, installing military roadblocks, and abducting Palestinians in operations that extended from Ramallah in the central West Bank to Nablus in the northern West Bank, Hebron in the southern West Bank, and occupied Jerusalem.
In related news, illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers attacked a Bedouin gathering on Sunday near the concrete‑mixing factories on the western outskirts of al‑‘Auja, north of Jericho in the northeastern West Bank, in addition to Bedouin communities near Hebron and in the Northern Plains.
