▲ Mohammad Dada, a 13-year-old Palestinian boy, killed in Israeli fire


A 13-year-old boy was shot dead by Israeli soldiers during protests in the West Bank district of the Jordan River in Palestine, Wapa news agency reported.



According to the Ministry of Health of the Palestinian Authority, 13-year-old Muhammad Dada was shot in the stomach during a protest in a village near Nablus in the central West Bank.



The boy was rushed to the hospital, but died.



On this day, Palestinians were protesting against the construction of a Jewish settlement 'outpost'.



An outpost is an unlicensed facility built without a permit from the Israeli government, which often becomes a formal settlement after death.



In the West Bank occupied by Israel through the Third Middle East War in 1967, protests by residents over issues such as settlements are common.



Many people die or are injured in the process.



In June, a 15-year-old Palestinian boy was killed by an Israeli gunshot wound.
