Israeli forces shot dead a Palestinian man on Sunday after the man
allegedly stabbed and injured an Israeli police officer near Damascus
gate in occupied East Jerusalem. The attacker was a 38-year-old Palestinian from
the Nablus district of the northern occupied West Bank. Local
sources identified him as Basseem Abdul-Rahman Mustafa Salah. The
Israeli police officer who was injured is reportedly in light to
moderate condition, a Magen David Adom medical service spokesperson
said. Witnesses near the near scene told Ma'an that
Israeli police shot the Palestinian man at least 11 times during the
incident, adding that Israeli forces did not allow medics to reach him.
YNet reports that somewhat later an Israeli was
moderately wounded in another stabbing attack, on a bus in Jerusalem. The assailant fled.
So far 105 Palestinians have been killed since the start of last month,
the majority of them during attacks or alleged ctual
attacks on Israelis. In the same time 19 Israelis were killed.
Israeli forces issued an order for the closure of a Hebron radio station
on Sunday morning, the third news outlet to be shut by Israel this
month in the occupied West Bank city.
Director of of Dream
Radio station, Talab Al-Jaabri, told Ma’an that Israeli forces stormed
the station, destroying equipment and damaging offices.Al-Jaabri said Israeli forces told him the radio station would be closed for six months due to “incitement against Israel.”
Last week Israeli forces shut down Al-Khalil Radio (Hebron Radio), also in Hebron, on the same grounds of incitement..Earlier
this month, Israeli forces ordered the closure and ban on broadcasting
from Manbar al-Hurriyya (Freedom Tribune) radio station, also located in
Hebron and reportedly affiliated with Fatah.
