In the village of Za’tara, south of Nablus, on Sunday evening, Israeli troops shot and killed Sameh Hamdallah Mahmoud Aqtash (37 years old).
The Palestinian Ministry of Health confirmed that Sameh was shot in the abdomen by Israeli troops during an invasion of Za’tara village, in the northern West Bank.
According to local sources, Israeli troops attacked and shot Sameh while he was in his home.
The Israeli troops were accompanied by paramilitary Israeli settler militias, who also attacked Palestinian civilians in the village, and fired dozens of rounds of live fire at the Palestinians and their homes.
Local sources reported that Sameh Aqtash, who was murdered by Israeli forces Sunday, was in Turkey two weeks ago, volunteering with a rescue team to save lives after the earthquake.
Dozens of Palestinians protested the closure of the Huwwara military roadblock before the army attacked them with live rounds, gas bombs, and concussion grenades.
It is worth mentioning that the paramilitary colonizers have frequently been invading Huwwata, attacking the Palestinians and their homes and shops, and burning cars.
Earlier Sunday, many paramilitary colonizers invaded Yanoun village, south of Nablus, attacked and detained a Palestinian family on their land while Israeli soldiers installed roadblocks and prevented the Palestinians from helping the family.
Also Sunday, Israeli military bulldozers uprooted Palestinian farmlands in Shoufa village, southeast of Tulkarem in the northern West Bank, after the army closed and isolated the entire area.
The day before Mohammad’s death, Israeli soldiers killed eleven Palestinians, injured more than 102, six seriously, and caused more than 250 Palestinians to suffer the effects of tear gas inhalation and other minor wounds.
The Israeli troops were accompanied by paramilitary Israeli settler militias, who also attacked Palestinian civilians in the village, and fired dozens of rounds of live fire at the Palestinians and their homes.
