July 06, 2022: Rafiq Riyad Ghanem, 20, was killed by Israeli soldiers who also shot at least another Palestinian in Jaba’ town, south of Jenin, in the northern part of the occupied West Bank.
Medical sources said Ghanem was shot and seriously injured by Israeli army fire before the soldiers took him away without allowing Palestinian medics to approach him.
The Israeli District Coordination office later contacted the Palestinian side and informed them that the young man had succumbed to his serious wounds.
Ghanem was shot near his home when the army invaded the town and fired many live rounds, gas bombs, and rubber-coated steel bullets at Palestinian protesters.
He wasn’t participating in protests when the soldiers shot him; his mother said he was wearing shorts and a tank top when he stepped out of the family home minutes before being shot.
Rafiq is the brother of political prisoner Ayham Ghannam, who was recently abducted by the Israeli army, and is still under interrogation, and former political prisoner Mohammad Ghannam.
His uncle, Hani Ghanem, is also a former political prisoner who was imprisoned by Israel for eighteen years, while his aunt, Ni’ma Ghanem, was killed by the Israeli twenty years earlier, and his grandfather was killed in the year 1948.
Hani said that Rafiq heard a sound near his home and went out to see what was going on before the undercover soldiers, standing at a distance behind him, shot him with two live rounds.
The soldiers also invaded Jenin city and the Jenin refugee camp before undercover officers, driving a car with Palestinian license plates, abducted a former political prisoner, Amid al-Isran, from the refugee camp.
The undercover officers fired a barrage of live rounds at random while withdrawing from the refugee camp and handed Amid to soldiers who forced him in a military vehicle and sped away.
Also, Mousa Khatib said the undercover officers shot his son Fadi Khatib, 20, a former political prisoner who Israel imprisoned for 18 months while standing in front of his home, causing a moderate injury to his leg.
Rafiq is the fourth Palestinian to be killed by Israeli soldiers in the West Bank in the first six days of July.

“We keep witnessing these crimes, and the international community fails to act. For example, we saw what terrorist colonizers did to the Dawabsha family in Nablus when they firebombed their home as they slept, burning the family to death, including the 18-month-old
