Israeli forces shoot, wound 13-year-old Palestinian boy in West Bank

A 13-year-old Palestinian boy was shot and wounded by Israeli forces early on Wednesday during a military raid in the city of Jericho in the occupied West Bank, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society.

The boy sustained a gunshot wound to the leg during an Israeli incursion into the city's Arab neighbourhood and was taken to the hospital for treatment, it said.

Israeli forces also raided the nearby Aqbat Jabr refugee camp and the Ain al-Sultan camp in northern Jericho before withdrawing from the area.
