The Palestinian news agency WAFA reported that occupation forces stormed the town with a number of military vehicles, firing live bullets heavily at Palestinian homes and vehicles, resulting in a 16-year-old teenager being shot in the chest.

It added that Palestinian Red Crescent crews transferred the injured to hospital for treatment.
