Israeli soldiers shot and seriously injured, Tuesday, a young Palestinian man during protests that erupted in the as-Sal’a neighborhood, in Jabal al-Mokabber, south of occupied East Jerusalem, after the army demolished an under-construction six-story residential building. Media sources said the soldiers attacked dozens of Palestinian protesters, who marched in condemnation of the Israeli escalation, including the demolition of homes, and fired many live rounds, rubber-coated steel bullets, gas bombs and concussion grenades at them. Palestinian medics rushed the seriously wounded young man to the al-Makassed hospital which was surrounded by occupation forces intent on abducting him.
