UPDATE: Israeli forces shoot and injure two Palestinians near Tubas

TUBAS: Two Palestinians were shot and injured today during an Israeli military incursion of the city of Tubas in the northern West Bank.

Medical sources reported that the two Palestinian young men were injured by live bullets in the lower extremities and were rushed to a nearby hospital for medical treatment.

Earlier morning, a large Israeli force raided the city of Tubas and deployed their forces across the streets and alleys, where they carried out wide-scale home raids and searches.

Undercover special forces further broke into the city from its eastern entrance, followed by military reinforcements accompanied by a bulldozer, coming from the Tayaseer checkpoint east of the city.

Later, the occupation surrounded a house and ordered via loudspeakers a young man to surrender himself.
