OCCUPIED AL-QUDS, JUN.15, (ST)- — A 16-year-old child was shot dead and two other people were injured by live ammunition this evening, including one seriously, during an incursion by Israeli occupation forces into the town of Beit Furik, located east of Nablus in the occupied West Bank.

The Ministry of Health identified the child killed as Abdul Rahman Sultan Khatatba, a resident of Beit Furik.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society stated that its teams in Nablus treated three individuals with gunshot wounds, including one critically injured with a chest wound.

The Red Crescent added that the Israeli occupation forces attacked the Beit Furik Municipality’s ambulance driver and smashed the vehicle’s windows while he was trying to reach the injured in the town.

The two others injured are a 45-year-old man who was shot in the thigh, and a 16-year-old boy was also shot in the thigh. All injured individuals were transported to the hospital for treatment.

Moreover, this evening, Israeli occupation forces launched artillery strikes on several areas in the southwest of Gaza City.
