IOF shoots nine Palestinians in Burqa, Nablus
Over nine Palestinians were shot on Friday in an incursion by Israeli settlers and the Israeli forces on the outskirts of Burqa town, to the northwest of Nablus in the occupied West Bank, according to local sources.
Palestinian official who monitors Israeli violations in the area, Ghassan Daghlas, said that Israeli fanatic settlers accompanied by Israeli forces damaged houses and shops at the entry to the town, sparking confrontations with local Palestinian residents.
He added two Palestinians were injured by rubber-coated rounds during the confrontations, while another seven suffered suffocation from teargas inhalation.
Israeli settler brutality against Palestinians and their possessions is commonplace in the West Bank and is rarely charged by Israeli authorities.
There are more than 600,000 Israeli settlers illegally occupying parts of the West Bank in violation of international law and designated norms prohibiting the relocation of the occupying power’s civil population to the land of the occupied.
