A Palestinian-American teenager was shot and killed Friday by Israeli troops within the West Financial institution, Palestinian officers advised Reuters.
The 17-year-old boy was shot throughout clashes with Israeli forces, the sufferer’s uncle advised Reuters.
A State Division spokesperson would solely verify to CBS Information {that a} U.S. citizen had died within the West Financial institution, including that “we’re working to grasp the circumstances of the incident and have requested the federal government of Israel for additional data.”
In response to Wafa, the Palestinian Nationwide Authority’s official information company, the boy was shot within the head.
Wafa reported that the taking pictures occurred in a small Palestinian city east of Ramallah. Israeli Protection Forces didn’t instantly reply to a request for remark from Reuters on the incident.
Tensions within the West Financial institution have surged since Hamas launched its bloody Oct. 7 terrorist assault on southern Israel, sparking the Israel-Hamas struggle.Â
