Palestinian girl shot, left to bleed to death by Israeli forces in Jenin
Israeli forces have shot a 16-year-old Palestinian girl in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin and denied medical access to her for over half an hour, leaving her to bleed to death, says the Palestinian Red Crescent.
The teenage girl, identified as Lujain Osama Musleh, was killed in the town of Kafr Dan in Jenin on Tuesday.
The agency said the regime’s forces prevented its medical team and its ambulance from reaching the area of the shooting for some 30 minutes and left the Palestinian girl to bleed to death.
Doctors Without Borders warned earlier that Israeli forces delay people’s access to care by obstructing access to health facilities, blocking traffic and targeting ambulances amid its "alarming" assault on Jenin.
Israeli forces also shot a 14-year-old Palestinian boy in the tight in the city. The victim’s identity and condition remain unknown.
And Israeli troops handed the body of a 58-year-old Palestinian to health authorities in Kafr Dan hours after they abducted him. The victim was identified as Ayman Rajeh Abed.
His body came in handcuffed and bearing signs of torture, according to Wissam Bakr, the director of Jenin Governmental Hospital.
Two more Palestinians were killed in the city of Tulkarm, according to WAFA news agency. It said Israeli troops raided the town, surrounded a house and shelled it.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health identified the victims as Rami Abbas and Nour Zayet. Their bodies, it said, were taken and are being withheld by Israeli forces.
The latest deaths have brought to 30 the number of Palestinians killed in West Bank since Wednesday, according to the Health Ministry. Six children and two elderly people were among the victims.
An independent UN expert warned Monday that Israel's "genocidal violence" in the Gaza Strip risked spreading to other parts of the occupied Palestinian territory amid the regime’s deadly assault on the West Bank that has entered its seventh day now.
Francesca Albanese, the United Nations special rapporteur on the rights situation in the Palestinian territories, said, “There is mounting evidence that no Palestinian is safe under Israel's unfettered control.”
