Israeli forces kill a Palestinian driver in al-Quds (Jerusalem) after accusing him of hitting a group of Israeli police force with his car.
Israeli forces said an Israeli policeman and policewoman were injured in the purported incident involving the Palestinian driver on Wednesday. The driver was identified as Omran Abu-Dahim, 41, a resident of Jabel Mukhaber in the neighborhood of the East al-Quds (Jerusalem).
Abu-Dahim was killed after being shot in the head by a third Israeli policeman.
Earlier in the month, an Israeli security guard killed another Palestinian in similar circumstances on the line separating al-Quds’ west and east.
Palestinians face various forms of Israeli aggression nearly every day, including the heavy-handed suppression of protests in the occupied West Bank and deadly aerial attacks in the Gaza Strip.
