IDF Kill 2 More Palestinians in West Bank as Israel Bars Jews from Al-Aqsa for Rest of Ramadan

HeadlineApr 12, 2023

Israeli forces shot and killed two Palestinians and injured one other Tuesday near the occupied West Bank city of Nablus. This brings the number of Palestinians killed by Israel since the start of 2023 to 98.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Jewish visitors would be banned from the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound until the end of Ramadan. This comes after Israeli forces forcibly removed and attacked worshipers during multiple raids since the start of Ramadan, triggering cross-border attacks between Israel and Lebanon, Syria and Gaza.
