Jenin 'awaiting death' of Palestinian shot in Jenin
The situation in Jerusalem and Jenin has calmed since this morning, but the aftershock of the two attacks can still be felt.
One of the two Palestinians who were shot by Israeli forces in Jenin is in critical condition and is not expected to make it out alive, Mohammad Abul Haijah, a Fatah secretary, told The New Arab's West Bank correspondent Qassam Muaddi.
"Lutfi Al-Labadi is in a very critical state. He received a bullet in the head. I spoke to the doctors at Ibn Sina hospital, and they told me that his heart had stopped during treatment, that he is unconscious, and that he has very little chance to survive", he said.
"The atmosphere at Yamoun is calm after the Israeli army withdrew, but the people are all expecting news of Al-Labadi’s death."
Sheikh Omar Kiswani, director of Al-Aqsa compound, said while the attack may have calmed, sporadic attacks on Palestinians are still taking place.
"They lock those who are inside the mosque and don’t let them out, they fire rubber bullets and throw stun grenades at them from the windows, they let Israeli settlers into the compound to tour the compound and do prayers, then leave", he told The New Arab.
"They are not allowing anyone into Al-Aqsa compound who is younger than 45."
