A Palestinian High School Student Killed By Israeli Soldiers

RAMALLAH - Israeli forces killed a Palestinian and injured seven others in an attack on the northwestern city of Beit Rima in Ramallah, Israel's occupied West Bank.

A 17-year-old high school student, Aseed Tariq Anis Al-Rimawi, was shot by Israeli forces on his chest with live ammunition in the raid, the official Palestinian news agency Wafa said on Friday morning, citing health sources.

He died after suffering serious injuries. Seven Palestinians who were injured in the attack were transferred to the Salfit Government Hospital in the West Bank.

At least two Palestinians were injured in the Israeli army raid at the Balata Refugee Camp in the city of Nablus, West Bank. Tensions have risen in the West Bank since the outbreak of fighting in Gaza on October 7 between Palestinian groups and Israelis, as reported by Anodalu.

Israel has launched non-stop air and landstrikes in the Gaza Strip since cross-border attacks by Palestinian resistance group Hamas on October 7.

At least 22,438 Palestinians have been killed and 57,614 others injured, according to Gaza's health authorities, while nearly 1,200 Israelis are believed to have died in Hamas attacks.
