The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Wednesday evening cold-bloodedly killed a Palestinian young man and wounded three others as they were traveling aboard a car in Bethlehem, South of the West Bank.

RNA - The Palestinian health ministry confirmed the death of 28-year-old Ahmed Manasera, from Wadi Fukin village in Bethlehem, after he suffered bullet injuries in his chest and other areas of his body, Palinfo reported.

Three other citizens, including a woman, suffered bullet injuries, one seriously, in the shooting attack.

According to local sources, Israeli soldiers intensively opened fire at a Palestinian car near al-Nashash checkpoint at the Southern entrance to al-Khader town, killing Manasera and injuring three others, including a man and his wife.

Also, the Israeli occupation forces at midnight killed two Palestinian youths during a raid on the West Bank city of Nablus.

Local sources announced that the Israeli forces executed two Palestinian youths inside a car near Joseph's Tomb area for no apparent reason.

The Israeli forces further opened fire at the ambulances that rushed to the scene to evacuate the youths, leaving them to bleed to death, the sources added.

The Palestinian ministry of health announced that the martyrs are Raed Hamdan, 21, and Zeid Nouri, 20.

Before the shooting, the Israeli occupation forces stormed Joseph's Tomb area in large numbers, climbed the rooftops of the surrounding Palestinian homes, and deployed in the streets to clear way for a settler break in into the site.

Anti-settlement activist Ghassan Daghlas said that hundreds of Jewish settlers at daybreak stormed Joseph's Tomb while escorted by heavily armed Israeli forces.

The murder of Hamdan and Nouri came only a few hours after the Israeli army assassinated Omar Abu Laila, the Palestinian accused of killing two Israelis in Ariel attack, in Ramallah.

The Hamas Movement stated that the Palestinian resistance in the West Bank is able to respond to Israel’s crimes, warning that the coming days will be full of surprises for the occupation.

“All options are open for the resistance fighters to respond to the occupation’s crimes,” Hamas said. 

“The occupation’s persistence in committing crimes in the West Bank will not weaken our people’s determination to continue their resistance,” the Movement added.
