Dozens of Palestinians were injured in attacks carried out by settlers and occupation soldiers in the al-Khalil Governorate in the occupied West Bank.

In al-Aroub Camp, a child was seriously injured after being shot by Israeli occupation forces using live bullets.

Local sources said that the 12-year-old boy was admitted to the Arab Society Hospital in Beit Jala to be treated for gunshot wounds he sustained in his lower back and caused internal bleeding.

Palestinian press sources also said that eyewitnesses pointed out that Israeli snipers were deployed in the al-Jawabra neighborhood in the al-Aroub Camp to target the youth.

In Yatta and Al-Tuwana, dozens of Palestinians were injured during an attack carried out by settlers, during which they destroyed a number of vehicles and caused damage to crops.

The coordinator of the national and popular committees south of Al-Khalil, Ratib Jabbour, said in statements that the residents tried to repel the settlers' attack and prevent them from assaulting them and sabotaging their property, which led to several injuries, several of which were admitted to the hospital.

It is noteworthy that the occupation forces, under whose protection the settlers acted, fired sound and gas bombs at the citizens, causing dozens of them to suffocate.
