Atef Mohammed Saleh, 32
Israeli military forces have shot dead a Palestinian man at the Gaza Strip's border, claiming he was going to “sabotage” a fence separating the besieged territory from the occupied territories.
The Israeli military admitted in a statement Sunday that the man died after sustaining fatal injuries.
The deadly encounter came a day after the Israeli military clashed with anti-occupation protesters at the fence, killing one person and injuring about 400 other people.
Nearly 175 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces ever since anti-occupation protest rallies began in the Gaza Strip on March 30. A total of 19,139 Palestinians have also sustained injuries.
The Gaza clashes reached their peak on May 14, on the eve of the 70th anniversary of Nakba Day, or the Day of Catastrophe, which coincided this year with the US embassy relocation from Tel Aviv to occupied East Jerusalem al-Quds.
Earlier on Sunday, a video clip made the rounds on social media, appearing to show Israeli troops shooting a Palestinian boy at a time when he posed no obvious threat.
In the video, 16-year-old Ahmad Misbah Abu Toyour is standing near the fence as he is taking part in "The Great March of Return" protests. Toyour throws a stone at Israeli forces, and a shot rings out and he falls to the ground obviously in a great deal of pain.
The Palestinian teenager succumbed to his gunshot wounds at the European Hospital in the city of Khan Yunis, located about 25 kilometers south of Gaza City, on Saturday morning.

Wael al-Ja'bari, 28
A Palestinian youth was killed on Monday after being shot by the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) east of al-Khalil. The PIC reporter said that the IOF opened fire at Wael al-Ja'bari, 28, near Kiryat Arba settlement for allegedly attempting a stabbing attack. Palestinian Ministry of Health said that the IOF soldiers transferred al-Ja'bari's body to an unknown destination. Hebrew media sources said that a Palestinian citizen was shot and killed after he attempted to carry out a stabbing attack near Kiryat Arba. No injuries were reported among the Israelis, they added. A video was leaked showing Israeli settlers assaulting and beating al-Ja'bari as he was lying on the ground covered with his blood. video Palestinian Killed by Israeli Forces in Hebron After Alleged Stabbing Attempt Israeli soldiers killed, Monday, a young Palestinian man near the al-Mowahel military checkpoint, located near the illegal Israeli settlement of Kiryat Arba in Hebron, in the southern part of the occupied West Bank. The soldiers shot the young man with multiple live rounds, then left him lying on the ground and prevented ambulances from reaching him. He eventually bled to death from his wounds. Although the soldiers claimed that the young man had attempted to carry out a stabbing attack at the checkpoint, they presented no evidence for this claim, and the video released by the Israeli military shows al-Jabari’s body lying on the ground far from the checkpoint in the middle of the street. This is presumably where he was standing where he was shot, and the location is at least twenty meters away from the checkpoint. The Palestinian has been identified as Wael Abdul-Fattah al-Ja’bari, a 27-year-old Palestinian, from Hebron. The slain Palestinian is a married father of two children, and was shot just meters away from his home. |
Israeli forces reportedly shot the youth with several bullets throughout his body and prevented the access of ambulance crews to the site of the incident, leaving the youth to bleed to death.
No Israeli soldiers were injured or hurt in any way, as the young man was shot while far from the checkpoint.
Reporters from Palestine TV attempted to cover the incident, but were prevented by Israeli soldiers from accessing the area, and were attacked by the soldiers, who hit them and tried to break their equipment.
According to Human Rights Watch, Palestinians in Hebron are subjected to harassment ‘almost every day’ owing to a resurgence of extremist Zionism within Jewish enclaves.
In 2016, two Israeli soldiers received only 9 months in prison for shooting two Palestinian civilians dead; in 2012 a female Israeli soldier was awarded a Certificate of Merit for shooting an unarmed 17-year-old boy at a checkpoint, according to journalist Ruari Wood of Amity Underground.
Israeli settlers in Hebron frequently chop down olive trees that provide a livelihood to many Palestinians, and rolling armored Caterpillar bulldozers through buildings that have reliably sheltered generations of Palestinian families.
