Another Palestinian killed by Israeli soldiers In Jerusalem

Israeli soldiers have killed another Palestinian man in the occupied East Jerusalem al-Quds. The Israeli media claimed the 25-year-old man was shot dead after he stabbed and injured two troopers with a knife near Bab al-Asbat Gate in the Old City. The identity of the Palestinian victim has not been revealed but he is reportedly from the Jabel Mukaber neighborhood, in the eastern part of the city. Israeli forces have increased their presence in the area as well as the Old City ahead of the Israeli Purim Holiday. At least 282 Palestinians have been killed in violence that erupted since October 2015. Dozens of Israelis have died in the same period.
