Israeli Forces Kill 2 Palestinian Teens During Raids Across Occupied West Bank
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Israeli forces killed two Palestinian teenagers in separate incidents
Monday as they carried out raids across the occupied West Bank. In
Hebron, soldiers fatally shot 17-year-old Muhannad Tariq Muhammad
al-Zughair, whom they accused of carrying out a car-ramming attack that
injured an Israeli soldier. Elsewhere, 18-year-old Muhammad Raslan
Mahmoud Asmar was shot during a raid on his village northwest of
Ramallah. Witnesses say the teen was left to bleed out as Israeli forces
barred Red Crescent medics from approaching. The soldiers then seized
his lifeless body. Last week, the United Nations reported more than
1,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli settlers and soldiers in
the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem since October 7, 2023.
