Nablus, March 7 (RHC)-- A 10-year-old Palestinian boy, Amr Muhammad al-Najjar, was martyred Monday by Israeli occupation forces in the village of Burin, south of Nablus in the West Bank.

The director of the Red Crescent Ambulance and Emergency Center in Nablus, Ahmed Jibril, said al-Najjar died after he succumbed to bullet wounds he sustained in the head, and another Palestinian child was injured after being shot in the chest. A third child was wounded after IOF members physically beat him. 

Footage circulated on social media showing the child martyr's family bidding him emotional farewells.

Palestinians responded to the IOF's raids into the village of Burin, where violent confrontations broke out. The IOF fired tear gas, which led to numerous children being injured.  The IOF also stormed the town of Arraba in Jenin after storming the al-Amari camp, south of al-Bireh city.

A 16-year-old boy, Mustafa Abu Shalbak, was martyred on Monday morning, as a result of his wounds shot by the IOF during their storming of al-Amari camp.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced that the Palestinian child, Mohammad Khaled Zaid, 13 years old, succumbed to his wounds after being shot by Israeli occupation forces, on Saturday night, near the Jalazone refugee camp, north of Ramallah, in the central West Bank. 

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society reported that its teams responded to a severe injury case caused by live bullets in the Jalazone camp.  They administered cardiopulmonary resuscitation to the injured individual and then transferred them to Ramallah Governmental Hospital for further treatment.

Palestinian media confirmed that the occupation forces shot the Palestinian child, along with another child, near the apartheid separation and expansion wall adjacent to the camp, which is dozens of meters away from the Israeli settlement of "Beit El."
