Two Palestinian children were wounded early Saturday as Israeli troops opened fire at houses during their incursion into the West Bank city of Tulkarem and its Refugee Camp, medics and witnesses said.
They told WAFA that Israeli forces rolled Friday overnight into Tulkarem amid intensive fire. Israeli soldiers positioned atop houses and armoured vehicles targeted houses injuring two children.
Medics said that 11-year-old girl and 10-year-old boy Motasim Amarneh were injured after having been shot with rubber-coated metal bullets.
Earlier, on Friday night, Israeli troops blew up one house in the village of Beit Forik, east of Nablus. Witnesses told WAFA that the Israeli soldiers dynamited the house of Yousef Hinani who was killed Friday by Israeli soldiers after attacking "Itamar" settlement.
The house was turned into rubble while several other houses were damaged because of the huge explosion. (albawaba.com)
