RAMALLAH, 20 August 2022, (TON): There was growing outrage in the occupied West Bank after Israeli troops killed another unarmed Palestinian man.
Saleh Sawafta, 58, was returning from dawn prayers at a mosque near his home in Tubas when he was shot in the head. Doctors fought to save his life, but Sawafta died from critical wounds.
The victim, who had been preparing for his daughter’s wedding next week was not involved in previous clashes with Israeli forces and was not a target for arrest.
His death brought the number of Palestinians killed by the Israeli army since the beginning of the year to 135.
Hundreds of people attended Sawafta’s funeral on Friday afternoon as anger spread in the city.
