Palestinian teen succumbs to wounds inflicted by Israeli forces
The military forces of the Israeli regime have killed a 16-year-old Palestinian boy in the al-Mughair village, northeast of the occupied West Bank city of Ramallah. The resistance movement Hamas says such acts will not affect the Palestinian nation's determination in defending their land.

Palestinian teenage boy succumbed to his critical injuries on Friday as a result of live ammunition fired by Israeli soldiers in the chest during a military raid of the region.

According to WAFA News Agency, the clashes erupted after the Israeli forces and settlers violently cracked down on a rally against settler attacks in the village.

Local sources said Abu Alia was the only child of his parents.

In a statement on Friday, Hamas condemned the blatant crime committed by the Zionist regime. It said such acts will not break the will of the Palestinian people on the path of liberating their homeland.

The movement also called on resistance fighters and Palestinian youth to continue confronting illegal settlement projects of the occupation.
 
In another incident on Thursday evening, Israeli forces opened fire at a vehicle at Huwara military checkpoint, south of Nablus, wounding three Palestinians.

Two of the men were rushed to a hospital by Palestinian medics while the third one who had sustained a critical wound in the neck was detained by Israeli forces and transferred to an Israeli hospital.

According to eyewitnesses, the clash erupted while the three young men were in their car. The Israeli forces closed the checkpoint and prevented Palestinians' movement in both directions after the incident.

Meanwhile, early on Friday, the regime's forces raided a number of houses in Nablus and arrested three Palestinians. Local media said the Zionist soldiers attacked Kafr Qalil town, south of Nablus, and nabbed two brothers named Moataz and Imad Nassar Mansour.

In another raid in Tal town, south of Nablus, the forces arrested Alaa Hamayel after violently breaking into his family house. The arrest came only one day after he was released.

In another development in occupied Palestine, Ra’ed Rayyan put an end to his hunger strike after 113 days, which came in protest to their administrative detention.

He broke the hunger strike on Thursday after reaching an agreement with Israeli authorities not to renew his administrative detention term.

Over 680 Palestinian prisoners are currently being held under the administrative detention policy, through which the Israeli regime keeps the detainees without charge for up to six months; a period which can be extended indefinitely.

The detention takes place on the orders of a military commander and on the basis of what the Israeli regime describes as “secret” evidence. Some prisoners have been held in administrative detention for up to 11 years.

Israel has issued more than 54,000 administrative detention orders against Palestinian activists since 1967, when it occupied the Palestinian territory of the West Bank during a heavily Western-backed war.

There are reportedly more than 7,000 Palestinians held in Israeli jails. Human rights organizations say the regime violates all the rights and freedoms that are granted to incarcerated persons by the Geneva Convention on the treatment of prisoners of war.
