On Friday dawn, Israeli soldiers killed a young Palestinian man after the army invaded Kafr Dan town, west of Jenin, in the occupied West Bank’s northern part.

The Palestinian Health Ministry has confirmed that the soldiers killed Abdullah Emad Abu Al-Hasan, 16, from Al-Yamoun town, west of Jenin, after shooting him with a live round in the abdomen.

It said Abdullah suffered a very serious injury due to the gunshot wound to the abdomen and succumbed to his wounds shortly after he was injured.

The Health Ministry officially identified the slain Palestinians as Mahmoud Ali Nafe’ Saadi, 23, Mahmoud Khaled Ar’arawi, 24, and Rafat Omar Khamayseh, 15.
