Israeli Soldiers Shoot Dead 3 Palestinians in West Bank City of Nablus

HeadlineFeb 09, 2022

In the occupied West Bank, Israeli forces have killed three Palestinians in the city of Nablus. Eyewitnesses said an Israeli soldier shot at their car after storming into the victims’ neighborhood in a civilian vehicle. Gunshots were heard for over one straight minute. Rights groups condemned the attack. This is a Palestinian official speaking Tuesday.

Ghassan Daghlas: “This is just another new crime and a new massacre, nothing strange from the Israeli government. This is the true face of Israel. Forces, occupation and settlers rule in Israel. And their government leader is a settler. So, definitely, there will be catastrophic results on the ground, but we will not allow them to kill our nation’s children in the light of day, when they are innocent, to kill them in cold blood. This is a crime.”
