RAMALLAH, Sept 7 (NNN-WAFA) – A Palestinian girl was killed by Zionist gunfire yesterday, in the village of Qaryut, south of Nablus, in the northern West Bank, Palestinian sources said.
Medical sources said that, 13-year-old Bana Baker died, from a gunshot wound to the chest, during an attack by settlers on the village.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society said in a statement that, its teams treated a girl with critical chest injuries from live ammunition in Qaryut.
The injured girl was transported to Rafidia Government Hospital in Nablus, where doctors declared her dead from her injuries.
Her father said that, Bana was shot by Zionist gunfire, while she was in her room at home, with her sisters.
Local sources reported that a number of settlers stormed the village yesterday, attacking residents, throwing stones, and setting fire to the land.
