IDF Investigates Soldier's Fire on Palestinian Near Jenin
An Israeli security official stated that the IDF is investigating an incident near Jenin where a soldier fired at a Palestinian man. The investigation will determine if the soldier deviated from open-fire regulations. The incident occurred near the village of Faqqua, east of Jenin, shortly after a video of the event circulated.
According to an initial IDF commander's inquiry, the confrontation began when Palestinians gathered around a shepherd. Regular soldiers, reinforced during the holiday, arrived at the scene. Firing into the air preceded shots aimed at the lower body of a Palestinian. The exact reasons for the shooting are still under investigation.
