Four Palestinians Injured by Zionist Shelling in West Bank



RAMALLAH (Dispatches) – Four Palestinians were injured by the Zionist regime’s army’s shelling in the West Bank, the Palestinian Health Ministry said on Monday in a statement, obtained by Sputnik.
"Four young Palestinian men were injured by bullets from the Israeli forces at the entrance to the Deir Abu Mash'al settlement [northwest of the city of Ramallah]," the statement said.
One of the injured is in serious condition, according to the ministry.
On October 26, a Palestinian man was killed in clashes with Zionist troops in the village of al-Mazra'a al-Qibliya.
The Palestine Red Crescent Society reported at the time that nine people had been shot with live bullets, and two had been badly injured.
On December 21 last year, the United Nations General Assembly overwhelmingly voted in favor of a resolution that calls on the U.S. to withdraw its controversial policy shift.
Despite the vote, the U.S. went ahead with the embassy transfer on May 14, triggering demonstrations in the occupied Palestinian territories, Iran, Turkey, Egypt, Jordan, Tunisia, Algeria, Iraq, Morocco and other Muslim countries.
The regime’s crackdown in Gaza left over 60 protesters dead in the impoverished coastal enclave on that day alone.
Angered by Trump’s move, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas boycotted his administration, saying Washington is no longer qualified to serve as the sole mediator in the decades-long conflict with the regime.
