HEBRON, Monday, November 11, 2019 (WAFA) – A Palestinian who was critically injured when Israeli soldiers opened live fire at Palestinians participating in marches commemorating the 15th anniversary for the death of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat has died of his wounds, according to the Ministry of Health.
Israeli soldiers attacked the march using live ammunition and teargas, said witnesses.
One person, identified as Omar Haytham Badawi, 22, was seriously injured in the chest from a live bullet and was taken by residents to a local clinic after the soldiers prevented Red Crescent ambulances from reaching him. He was later transferred to hospital in Hebron where he was pronounced dead.
