- Three Palestinians injured as 'Israeli' forces open fire near Awarta checkpoint
The Palestinian Red Crescent reported injuries among civilians after 'Israeli' forces opened fire directly at their vehicle near the Awarta military checkpoint, north of the occupied West Bank.
Medical teams treated three people at the scene, according to Red Crescent sources. The incident comes amid ongoing tensions at military checkpoints and roads in northern West Bank areas.
This attack is part of a broader security and military escalation by 'Israeli' forces across West Bank towns and villages, where targeting vehicles and pedestrians at checkpoints has become increasingly common.
Israeli forces continue a policy of "hunting" Palestinians through intensified checkpoints and live-fire operations under the pretext of "suspicion," alongside frequent daytime and nighttime raids in camps and towns, resulting in numerous casualties, injuries, and arrests. These measures aim to enforce a restrictive security reality on Palestinian daily life.
