WEST BANK, (Palestine Foundation Information Center), An elderly Palestinian woman, Sabriya Shamasneh, was martyred early Tuesday after succumbing to injuries sustained following a brutal assault by Israeli soldiers who stormed her home in the town of Jayyous, northeast of Qalqilya.
Local sources and eyewitnesses reported that forces from the occupation army raided the Shamasneh family’s house at dawn, where the elderly woman was directly attacked and severely beaten by soldiers.
The sources explained that Sabriya was rushed to the hospital with serious internal injuries and bruises all over her body, but doctors later announced her death.
This assault coincided with a wide military campaign carried out by Israeli forces in Jayyous, which included breaking into and ransacking several homes.
The operation ended with the arrest of a young man before the Israeli occupation forces withdrew from the town.
