Iran Press/ Middle East: The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) said in a statement: “In 2021 alone, the Israeli Security Forces (ISF) have killed 59 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, including 22 refugees and 13 children. Some 984 Palestinians have been injured by live fire since the beginning of the year.”
UNRWA asked Israel to investigate these fatalities, the use of live ammunition and to hold accountable those that violate international standards.
According to the statement, Israeli military forces must protect the lives and ensure the dignity of Palestinians living under their control.
UNRWA also condemned the killing of 15-year-old Imad Saleh Khaled Hashash from the Balata refugee camp, in the occupied West Bank, by Israeli Security Forces on Tuesday.
According to initial reports, Imad, a ninth-grade student at the UNRWA Balata Boys’ School 1, was standing on the roof of his home when he was shot in the head with live ammunition.
