Palestinians say one killed in Israeli raid on West Bank
|
[IsraelTimes] The Palestinian Authority health ministry says that one man was killed during a raid in the West Bank by Israel’s military, which did not confirm the killing.
“The young man, Hamza Muhammad Saeed Khammash (33 years old), was shot and killed by occupation (Israeli) forces in the Old City of Nablus,” the ministry says in a statement.
Contacted by AFP, the Israeli military says “the incident is under review.”
Official Palestinian news agency Wafa reports that Israeli forces arrested three people, including Khammash’s brother during the raid.
An AFP journalist reports that hundreds of Palestinians marched through the narrow streets of Nablus’s Old City for Khammash’s funeral earlier today.
Khammash’s body was covered in a Palestinian flag and his head wrapped in a keffiyeh scarf as men carried him through the streets ahead of crying relatives including his mother.
Since the start of the Gaza war, violence has soared in the West Bank.
Israeli troops or settler attacks have killed at least 915 Palestinians in the West Bank since then, according to the PA health ministry, which does not differentiate between civilians and combatants. Israel is in the midst of a months-long counter terror campaign in the West Bank.
Palestinian attacks and clashes during military raids have killed at least 32 Israelis, including soldiers, over the same period, according to official figures.
