Israeli gunfire claimed the lives of two Palestinian men in two distinct incidents within the occupied West Bank on Saturday, as reported by the Palestinian health ministry.
A 20-year-old died of his wounds after being shot in the abdomen by Israeli forces in the town of Beit Ummar, and a 25-year-old was killed in the city of Tulkarm, the health ministry said in a statement.
That brought the total number of Palestinian fatalities reported in the West Bank to 290 since the Israel-Hamas war began on October 7.
