Riyadh: A Palestinian child died Saturday after he was brutally shot by the Israeli occupation forces in Qabatiya town, southern Jenin Governorate in the occupied West Bank, the Palestinian Ministry of Health reported in a statement.

According to Qatar News Agency, local sources stated that the occupation forces raided the town and fired live ammunition directly at the child and blocked the access of Red Crescent-operated medics to him, leaving him wounded until he died, with his body being withheld.

Earlier Saturday, a Palestinian young man from Silat Al Harithiya, west of Jenin, was killed after he had been brutally shot in the chest by the occupation's bullet.

Having these two Palestinians killed, the death toll in Jenin since the start of the Israeli aggression against the city and its towns six months ago rises to 62.

The cities, towns, and tents of the occupied West Bank and Jerusalem are coming under daily raids campaigns by the Israeli occupation forces, followed by a spate of detentions and firing of live rounds, rubber, and tear gas flashbangs at the Palestinian young people.
