A Palestinian young man was shot dead by the Israeli occupation on Tuesday, under the pretext of a run-over attempt at a checkpoint near Idna town, west of Hebron.

Medical sources confirmed the passing of 25-year-old Omar Awwad after he was shot by Israeli soldiers.

The Red Crescent crews said they had received a report that a young man was injured and that the occupation told them a man was injured in a traffic accident. When the medics arrived at the scene, they were surprised to find that he was shot by six bullets in the chest.

The doctors, who tried to revive the patient at Al-Ahli Hospital in Hebron, said that the victim was shot by six bullets directly at the chest, heart and abdomen from behind.
