On Tuesday night, Israeli forces assaulted Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) medics while they were attempting to transport a patient in the city of Nablus, in the northern part of the occupied West Bank.

The PRCS said in a statement that the soldiers stopped the ambulance while it was heading to a home on Amman Street in the city to transfer a child to a hospital in Nablus.

The PRCS added that the soldiers assaulted the medics and searched the ambulance while they were trying to reach the ailing child, before forcing the ambulance, at gunpoint, to back away and leave the area.

In related news, the soldiers invaded Balata town and Joseph’s Tomb area, east of Nablus, to accompany groups of colonizers into the area and closed streets to prevent the Palestinians from reaching the area.

In related news, the Palestinian Health Ministry announced, on Tuesday afternoon, that the citizen, Samir Abdul-Rahim Amer, 55, died after Israeli forces shot and critically injured him while he was near the Apartheid Wall, near the village of Al-Jarushiya, northeast of Tulkarem.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) ambulance crews transported the critically wounded man to the Martyr Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital in Tulkarem, where he was later pronounced dead from a live gunshot wound to the chest.
