In occupied Jerusalem, a 17-year-old Palestinian boy was shot by Israeli occupation forces near the apartheid wall in the village of Sheikh Saad, southeast of the city. The Palestinian Red Crescent Society reported that its crews responded to the child's leg injury, which was caused by live ammunition, before transporting him to the hospital for treatment.
The association noted that it also dealt with the injury of another Palestinian youth by Israeli occupation forces' gunfire in the same area near the separation wall in Al-Eizariya. He was taken to the hospital, but no further details were provided about the circumstances of the injury, according to what was reported by the Palestinian News Agency, WAFA.
In Nablus, occupation forces arrested two Palestinian youths at dawn on Saturday, one from the Ein al-Ain refugee camp and the other from an extension of al-Sikka Street. The arrests followed extensive raids on citizens' homes in the camp and several neighborhoods in the city, accompanied by searches of the homes' contents.
According to the same source, occupation forces raided several areas in the Bethlehem Governorate, including the villages and towns of Rafidia, Al-Asakra, Beit Ta'mar, Beit Falouh, and Harmalah in the east, in addition to the town of Tuqu' in the southeast, and Al-Khader in the south, without any reports of arrests.
In the Hebron Governorate, a Palestinian woman sustained injuries and bruises after settlers attacked Palestinian farmers in the Dahr al-Bu Wardan area of the town of Halhul, north of the city. The Bedouin Rights Organization, Al-Baidar, reported that the woman was taken to the hospital for treatment.
In this context, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry stated that Minister Badr Abdel Aati discussed, in a phone call with his German counterpart, Johann Wadephul, the negative repercussions of Israel's settlement policies and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's statements regarding the so-called "Greater Israel."
