Two Palestinians killed by Israeli occupation forces north of Hebron

HEBRON: Two Palestinian young men were shot dead by Israeli occupation forces this morning at the entrance of the village of Beit Einoun, located northeast of Hebron in the occupied West Bank.

Local sources informed WAFA that Israeli forces fired live bullets intensively towards the two young men at the entrance of the town, resulting in direct injuries before the two were pronounced dead of their wounds later. Ambulance crews were prevented from reaching them.

Additionally, Palestinian security sources confirmed to WAFA that the two young men succumbed to their injuries, and that their bodies are withheld by the Israeli occupation army at the moment.

The Ministry of Health later identified the two martyrs as Mohammad Majid Jabareen, 19 years old, and Musa Mahmoud Jabareen, 18.

Eyewitnesses documented the moment when Israeli forces executed one of the two young men at point-blank range, while circulating photos revealed that the youth was detained at the military checkpoint in that area before Israeli sol
diers approached him and shot him directly.

Following the deadly incident, Israeli occupation forces stormed the village of Beit Einoun, spreading on the roads and around the homes of citizens. The soldiers raided several homes, conducted searches, and tampered with their contents.
