In a brief statement on Tuesday, the Palestinian health ministry said two Palestinians were killed by Israeli occupiers’ gunfire in the town of al Mughayyir, east of Ramallah, including a child, and that three others were wounded, bringing the total number of those killed since the morning to four.
The ministry identified the two killed in al Mughayyir as Aws Hamdi al Naasan, 14, and Jihad Marzouq Abu Naim, 32.
In Jenin in the northern West Bank, the ministry said Raja Fadel Baitawi, 49, died of wounds sustained from Israeli army gunfire during a previous raid on the city.
