Israeli forces open fire on a family at Nur Shams camp, killing a Palestinian woman and critically injuring her husband.
The Israeli military has expanded its assaults in the occupied West Bank, killing an eight-month-pregnant woman during a raid at the Palestinian territory’s Nur Shams refugee camp.
The troops opened fire on a Palestinian family at the camp, killing Sondos Jamal Muhammad Shalabi and critically injuring her husband, the Palestinian Ministry of Health said in a statement on Sunday.
The ministry said medical teams were unable to save the 23-year-old woman’s fetus, because the Israeli military prevented them from transferring the injured couple to a hospital.
