Palestinian succumbs to injuries inflicted by Israeli gunfire near Jerusalem
- Yousef Omar Aql, 33, was from Bidya, a town west of Salfit in the northern occupied West Bank
LONDON: A Palestinian man died on Tuesday from injuries sustained in Al-Ram town, north of East Jerusalem, after being shot by Israeli forces.
Yousef Omar Aql, 33, from the town of Bidya, which is west of Salfit in the northern occupied West Bank, died from a gunshot wound inflicted by Israeli forces. He was injured a week earlier in Al-Ram while trying to enter his workplace in Israel.
Aql was transferred to the Palestine Medical Complex in Ramallah after being shot. He was admitted to intensive care but was declared dead on Tuesday after suffering critical injuries.
More than 1,000 Palestinians, including militants, have been killed in the West Bank by Israeli forces or settlers since the start of the Gaza war in late 2023, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry. During the same period, 43 Israelis, including soldiers, have been killed in Palestinian attacks in the West Bank, according to official Israeli figures.
