NABLUS, March 12, 2026 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation forces opened fire on Thursday evening at a vehicle carrying two young Palestinian men near the Za’tara junction, south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank.
According to WAFA correspondent, Israeli forces fired at the vehicle as it was passing along the road near the Za’tara junction. Initial reports indicate that the two passengers were injured, though the nature of their injuries has not yet been determined.
Following the incident, Israeli forces closed several military checkpoints and gates surrounding the city of Nablus, including Awarta, Al-Murabba’a, Deir Sharaf, and the gates of Huwwara, while tightening measures at others. The closures caused severe traffic congestion and prevented thousands of citizens from reaching their cities, villages, and homes.
