A Palestinian who was shot by Israeli troops in the occupied West Bank earlier this week died of his wounds on Saturday, Palestinian official media said. The death was the latest in a wave of violence rocking the region.
According to Wafa, the official Palestinian news agency, Mohammad Abu Asab, 19, was shot in the head on Wednesday during an Israeli army incursion into the Balata refugee camp near the northern West Bank city of Nablus. It cited medical officials.The Israeli military said in its statement Wednesday that a commando unit raided Balata seeking to destroy an underground weapons factory.
Wafa reported that during the fighting, Abu Asab was shot in the head and then taken to the Rafidia hospital in Nablus where he later died from his wounds.It was not immediately clear if Abu Asab was affiliated with a militant group and he wasn’t immediately claimed as a member by any group.Israel has been staging near-nightly raids since last spring in response to a spate of deadly Palestinian attacks. It’s become the fiercest fighting in the West Bank in some two decades.
