Israeli soldiers shot and injured, on Friday at night, two young Palestinian men, after firing rounds of live ammunition on their car, driving near the al-Jalama roadblock, north of the northern West Bank city of Jenin.

Medical sources said Mustafa Samir Ballout, 20, from Jenin city, suffered a moderate injury before the soldiers moved him in a military ambulance to an Israeli hospital.

The Ballout family denied some reports, on Facebook and by a few agencies, alleging their child was killed, and said he is still receiving treatment in the Israeli Hospital.

In addition, resident Yousef Abdullah Abu Na’sa, 18, was shot in the abdomen before local medics moved to Khalil Suleiman Hospital in Jenin.

ENIN (Ma'an) -- Two young Palestinian men were injured overnight Friday after Israeli troops opened fire at their vehicle near al-Jalama checkpoint north of Jenin.

Palestinian security sources told Ma'an that one of the victims, Mustafa Ballut, 20, from Jenin, was taken to an Israeli hospital in Affula, suffering from serious wounds.

The other victim, 19-year-old Yousuf Abd al-Karim Abu Naasah from Jenin refugee camp was evacuated by a Palestinian ambulance to a public hospital in Jenin. Medics said his wounds were moderate.

The Israeli liaison department notified their Palestinian counterparts that Israeli troops fired at the vehicle because it aroused suspicions. The incident, they said, is being investigated.
