Al-Qassam Website - Israeli occupation forces have killed a Palestinian civilian in the occupied West Bank city of Al-Bireh on Friday evening after they opened live fire directly towards him.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health reported that the occupying forces shot dead injured Palestinian civilian Yazan Khasib, 23, after he allegedly tried to stab terrorist soldiers, a claim the occupation forces often invent to exonerate themselves from the extrajudicial killings.

This came a day after the occupation forces stormed the Jenin refugee camp and summarily executed four Palestinians in broad daylight and full view of the world.

The latest attack brings to 89 the number of Palestinians killed by Israeli occupation troops and colonial settlers so far this year, including 16 children, four senior civilians and a detainee.
