Zionist regime’s forces have mistaken a Jewish settler for a Palestinian and fatally shot him in the Old City of al-Quds.
According to reports, the incident happened in the city’s Romema neighborhood late on Wednesday when two Zionist soldiers, boarding a bus on Yirmiyahu Street near the central bus station, were asked for their IDs by an unknown man.
When the soldiers asked the man to identify himself, he refused and tried to attack them, a move which reportedly made the soldiers open fire on him.
The man was pronounced dead at the scene. Further search revealed that he was an Israeli Jew himself.
However, according to Ma’an News Agency, the soldiers had orders to arrest a Palestinian suspect in the bus but they mistook another Israeli for the Palestinian and gunned him down.
Earlier in the day, another Palestinian, identified as Mohammad Fahim, was shot and martyred by Zionist regime’s soldiers in the vicinity of Beit Ummar, a town near al-Khalil.
Also on Wednesday, Zionist forces shot and martyred a young Palestinian man after he allegedly stabbed a female Israeli officer in the neck, near an Israeli settlement south of the city of Ramallah.
