Report: Israeli forces kill Palestinian near Ramallah | Maan News Agency
EL AVIV, Israel (Ma'an) -- Israeli military forces killed a Palestinian man near Ramallah late Monday, in the second deadly shooting in a day in the occupied West Bank, reports said.
Hebrew-language daily Maariv reported that Israeli forces opened fire at Palestinians who threw stones at cars on Route 60, near the illegal settlement outpost of Givat Assaf.
An Israeli military spokeswoman did not immediately return calls.
Earlier, Israeli forces shot and killed a Palestinian man at the Allenby Bridge crossing with Jordan, Israel's army and witnesses said.
Army commander Yaron Beit On, speaking in a conference call with reporters later in the day, said that after a man attempted to snatch an Israeli soldier's gun, another soldier shot him in the leg.
The man then managed to grab a metal bar from one of the Israeli troops, Beit On said. When he tried to use it as a weapon, a soldier shot and killed him.
He said that the incident occurred at around 9:30 a.m., and that the man was carrying two suitcases with him.
The victim was identified as Raed Alaa Addin Zieter, 38, from Nablus.
A Jordanian security official told AFP that Zeiter worked as a judge in Amman and had left for the West Bank early on Monday.
Jordan's justice ministry confirmed the information, saying he worked at a magistrates court in the capital.
Palestinian security officials said he was originally from the northern West Bank city of Nablus, but had left the territories in 2011 and not returned.
The Palestinian Authority strongly condemned the shooting and demanded an international investigation.
..................
One was shot in the head while rebelling with rocks against an illegal settlement in Palestinian territory. More trigger happy Israeli forces who kill whomever they desire because they know very well they're immune charges and have backing of Jewish state to kill non Jews.
@Yzd Khalifa
What happened Yzd? You were telling us Palestinians acquiring weapons in Gaza would cost them lives even though every entity in this world has a right to acquire weapons for defense purposes and that doesn't justify a offensive or war against another entity or nation because they build up their military capabilities otherwise the whole world would be at war by now. More Palestinians are being killed in the West Bank than in Gaza and today one was killed at an illegal Israeli occupation outpost. When will you condemn Israel's occupation? No occupation=no violence
The Israelis want all of historic Palestine and do so through brute force. Meanwhile Palestinians in Gaza have at least a little sense of security knowing that an Israeli occupation or offensive on Gaza would lead to a reprisal with no quiet in Israel if they there's no calm in Palestine.
