Al-Qassam Website - Israeli occupation forces killed a Palestinian resistance fighter after he allegedly rammed his vehicle into a herd of terrorist Israeli colonists, killing two and injuring six others.

Local sources reported that the slain Palestinian, identified as Hussein Qaraqe', 31, was shot dead by Israeli occupation forces in occupied Jerusalem after the heroic car-ramming operation.

The latest shooting brings to 44 the number of Palestinians killed by Israeli occupation troops so far this year, including nine children and a senior woman.

This operation came hard on the heels of the passing of Palestinian detainee Ahmed Abu Ali, 48, in an Israeli occupation jail due to deliberate medical negligence.
