Hebron’s al-Ahly hospital said 20-30 undercover soldiers arrived at the clinic at around 3 am.
A Palestinian man, who was visiting his cousin at the hospital, was fatally shot by the Israeli military forces.
The commandos found Shalaldeh’s brother, Bilal, in the room and tied him up on a bed, but as they were about to leave with the suspect, another of his cousins abruptly entered the room.
They entered with someone in a wheelchair pretending to be pregnant. He had been shot in the head, the upper abdomen and the hand.
“We understand the objective is to provide European Union consumers correct information on the origin of products, as required by European Union law”, he said Thursday.
The Israel Defense Forces and the Shin Bet security service confirmed the raid and the shooting to Israeli media.
But Kifah Al Sharif, a member of the hospital’s board of directors, and hospital staffers said he was shot for no reason when he emerged from a bathroom.

Netanyahu’s office also said he and U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry had discussed how to curb violence, improve living conditions in the West Bank and advance the diplomatic process.
However, he said Azzam needed to remain in hospital as “some wounds were still in the healing phase”. The policy of “no holds barred” is intended further to intimidate the population living under Occupation, to beat it into submission, not only on a physical but also on a psychological level, whereby safety is not guaranteed even in the most welcoming and hospitable places of refuge, such as hospitals.
“The family of the person killed here may respond”. “It is equally clear that while these guidelines will have limited economic impact, they will underline to the Israelis that the European Union is finally starting to get serious”, he added.
Hebron is the epicenter of tension in the current wave of violence between the Palestinians and Israelis that is ongoing for the second month. These deaths brought to 13 the number of Israelis killed since the start of October. Israeli army said the attacker has fled the scene after shooting at an Israeli vehicle on the main road.
On Friday, a Palestinian gunman ambushed an Israeli family in the West Bank, killing a father and his son, while clashes with Israeli security forces in the territory killed two Palestinians.

In other violence on Friday near the West Bank city of Ramallah, 15 Palestinians were shot and wounded by Israelis using live fire, Palestinian medics said. “This means you are not safe in hospital”.
