YOUNG MAN KILLED IN JABA'A BY ISRAEL'S OCCUPATION FORCES

Israel's occupation forces fatally shot 20-year-old Rafiq Riyad Ghannam in the town of Jaba'a on Palestine's Israel occupied West Bank early on Wednesday July 6th.

According to Palestinian sources, he heard a sound from the outside, went to see what was happening and was shot twice with live ammunition, from a distance, by Israeli occupation soldiers.

Israeli occupation forces didn't allow Palestinian medics to reach Ghannam, arrested him, and later announced his death. According to one report, they would have already put him inside a black plastic bag on the site of the shooting.

Israeli occupation made two contradictory claims about his shooting, in one claiming that he would have been shot while throwing a Molotov cocktail at occupation groups, and in the another one claiming that he would have been shot for trying to escape from a building and refusing to stop. He is referenced as a 'suspect' in the latter.

A young man named Ahmad Ziam Hamamra was also arrested by the occupation soldiers.

Rafiq was the brother of the current political prisoner Ayham Ghannam and the former political prisoner Mohammad Ghannam.

Rafiq's uncle Hani Ghannam is also a former political prisoner. His aunt Ni’am Ghannam was killed by the Israeli occupation forces during the Second Intifada and his grandfather was killed by Zionist troops in 1948.
