16-year-old Palestinian boy succumbed on Thursday morning to serious wounds sustained one month ago by Israeli occupation gunfire near the occupied West Bank city of Ramallah.
The Palestinian Health Ministry confirmed that Mohammad Fadi Hani Nouri, a resident of Beitunia, died yesterday from wounds he sustained on September 28 after Israeli occupation forces shot him in the abdomen with live ammunition during confrontations at the northern entrance of al-Bireh city.
Since the start of the year, Israeli occupation forces and settlers have killed 175 Palestinians, including children, women, elderly people, journalists, and a doctor in the occupied West Bank, Jerusalem, and besieged Gaza Strip, according to the Health Ministry. Since the start of October, 7 Palestinian boys, including Nouri, have been killed by Israeli forces.
Nouri is the 29th Palestinian child shot and killed by Israeli forces and settlers in the occupied West Bank this year.
