Occupied Jerusalem: Two young Palestinian men were injured on Sunday April 12, 2026, by gunfire from Israeli occupation forces in the town of Al-Dhahiriya, south of Hebron in the West Bank.

The Palestinian News Agency (WAFA), citing local sources, reported that occupation forces opened fire at two young men after chasing them along the separation and expansion wall near Beit Mirsim, west of Hebron. They were subsequently transferred to the hospital.

In a related development, occupation forces raided the town of Dura and later positioned themselves near Dura Government Hospital.

Cities, towns, and refugee camps across the West Bank and occupied Jerusalem witness daily raids and incursions by occupation forces and settlers. These are often accompanied by confrontations, arrests, the use of live and rubber bullets, and the firing of tear gas canisters at Palestinians.
