RESTRICTION SUMMARY: APAwire CLIENTS ONLY SHOTLIST: APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Nablus - 27 October 2022. Palestinians attend the funeral of Imad Abu Rashid and Ramzi Zubara, who was killed by Israeli forces, in the West Bank city of Nablus. 0.1 SOUNDBITE (in Arabic) Yousef, son of Imad Abu Rashid. 0.2 SOUNDBITE (in Arabic) Majed Abu Kishk, Head of the People's Committee in Askar Camp. STORYLINE: Israeli forces shot and killed two Palestinians, and injured two others late last night near Huwwara military checkpoint to the south of Nablus in the northern West Bank, according to the Ministry of Health. The ministry in a brief statement said Israeli soldiers opened gunfire at Imad Abu Rashid, 47, seriously injuring him by live bullets in his head, abdomen, and chest. He was announced dead a few minutes later. Another man in his mid-30s, who was identified as Ramzi Zubara, was shot in the heart by live ammunition and critically injured. He succumbed to his serious wounds shortly after. The incident occurred shortly after the Israeli army lifted the siege imposed on the city of Nablus for about two weeks, said the Palestinian security sources. Over the past few months, the West Bank has witnessed growing tension between the Israeli army and the Palestinians. Since early January, more than 174 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli soldiers, including women and children, official Palestinian figures showed. Footage by APAwire
