Israeli forces shoot Palestinian photojournalist despite wearing press attire

Israeli forces have deliberately shot a Palestinian photojournalist in the head as he was covering the demolition of a Palestinian-owned home during a military raid in the occupied West Bank.

Momen Sameen was hit in the head by a rubber bullet despite wearing press attire in the West Bank city of Ramallah on Thursday, after Israeli military stormed the area and started to demolish the four-story house of Palestinian prisoner Islam Froukh, displacing its residents, Palestine’s official WAFA news agency reported

Sameen was covering the demolition process when he was shot and transferred to the hospital in serious condition.

Another journalist, Rabie Munir, was also reportedly wounded in the abdomen by rubber bullets shot by Israeli forces during the same operation.
