Israeli forces shot two Palestinian young men on Thursday night in the town of Baqa ash-Sharqiyya, northeast of Tulkarem in the northwestern part of the West Bank. Earlier Thursday, a gang of Israeli colonizers assaulted citizens after infiltrating the village of Ramin, east of Tulkarem.

Media sources reported that occupation forces shot two young men while they were in the vicinity of the Apartheid wall in the town of Baqa ash-Sharqiyya, northeast of Tulkarem in the northwestern part of the West Bank.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) reported that its ambulance crews transported two young men who sustained live gunshot wounds; one of who was shot in the leg, while another sustained bullet fragment injuries in the thigh and the hand.

In the afternoon, a group of illegal colonizers attacked Palestinian shepherds in the village of Ramin, east of Tulkarem, provoking citizens who attempted to confront them.


Media sources reported that a number of settlers infiltrated the Al-Sahl area of Ramin village and beat several shepherds with clubs, causing seven citizens to suffer injuries.

The PRCS reported that its ambulance crews provided first aid to seven citizens who suffered various injuries as a result of the settlers’ attack in Ramin village.

Media sources reported that occupation soldiers proceeded to storm the area, firing live ammunition towards citizens, and detaining several of the victims, rather than the aggressors.

They added that one of the wounded citizens, identified as Saqr Nidal Salman, was subsequently abducted by Israeli soldiers.
