A Palestinian worker was injured on Sunday by bullets from the Israeli forces while he was near the Apartheid Wall, south of Jenin, in the northern West Bank.

“The Israeli soldiers shot Khaled Fraihat by a bullet in the foot near the Apartheid Wall openings in Barta'a, south of Jenin,” local sources told Safa.

The Israeli forces today deployed widely on the wall openings in the vicinity of Jenin and Tulkarm with the aim of preventing workers from entering the occupied territories in 48 in light of strict measures that have escalated in recent days to close the openings.
