“This is an outright crime”, said Jihad Shawar, director of the Al-Ahli Hospital. He was shot in the heart by Israeli forces during a protest during the morning. A third Palestinian died Friday of wounds sustained in clashes with security forces the previous day. In 1994, Israeli-American Baruch Goldstein killed 29 Palestinians as they prayed in the Tomb of the Patriarchs. The operations are meant to take place quickly, and Israeli troops are typically stationed nearby to provide backup. “People are very angry”. Local media identified him as Hassan al-Baw.
Israeli police spokeswoman Luba Samri said the two victims were driving with their family south of their home in Kiryat Arba, a Jewish settlement adjacent to the city of the Hebron. Paramedics arrived to find two Israelis critically injured.

Ten agents barged into a hospital room to detain Azaam Shalaalda for his alleged involvement in the October 25 stabbing of an Israeli in the Gush Etzion settlement.

It was the most serious attack on Israelis in almost a month and sparked a manhunt, with soldiers backed by air units deploying en masse in the neighbouring Palestinian communities of Yatta and As Samou, an AFP journalist said.
“There are at least two Israeli snipers firing on the protesters”, he said.
After Friday prayers in the Gaza Strip, hundreds of Palestinians threw rocks at Israeli soldiers on the border.
“There is a tremendous amount of risk”, he said, adding that they are crucial in both thwarting attacks and gathering intelligence.
“They are firing live bullets and gas at us, including the journalists”. The global human rights group Amnesty worldwide said wounds to Abdallah’s head and upper body suggested the shooting was an “extrajudicial execution”.
