Two siblings said wounded by IDF gunfire in Tulkarem, one detained

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society reports two people wounded by IDF gunfire near Thabet Thabet Hospital in Tulkarem, in the northern West Bank.

One is a 19-year-old woman who was taken to the hospital after being shot in the leg, the Red Crescent says.

The IDF does not immediately respond to a request for comment.

WAFA, the Palestinian Authority’s official news agency, reports that the other person wounded is the 19-year-old’s brother, who was detained by Israeli forces before the Red Crescent could attend to him. His age is not immediately reported.

According to WAFA, the brother and sister are the children of a local Fatah official.
