The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) shot a Palestinian young man today, west of the Shweika suburb, north of Tulkarm, in the northern West Bank.

Palestinian News Agency (Wafa) reported, citing medical sources, that a young man was injured by a gunshot to the chest while he was near the Apartheid Separation Wall, on Palestinian lands north of Tulkarm.

The IOF has escalated in recent weeks their raids and incursions into Palestinian villages and towns in the occupied West Bank and Occupied Jerusalem. The IOF has also increased the pace of their arrests of Palestinian activists and youth.
