Israeli Occupation Police Kill One Palestinian in Jerusalem’s Old City
One Palestinian embraced martyrdom on Monday night after the Israeli occupation police opened fire at him in Jerusalem’s Old City.
Local sources said that the occupation troops opened fire at the martyr after he allegedly fired with a rudimentary submachine gun at a Zionist soldier near the Lion’s Gate entrance to the Old City.
An Israeli police officer tripped, while chasing the martyr, and was lightly hurt, Zionist police said.
As many as 80 more Palestinians are wounded on the al-Aqsa Mosque compound and elsewhere in the holy occupied city of Jerusalem al-Quds as the Israeli regime sustains its brutal attacks against the Palestinians there.

Israel is following an "expansionist philosophy" through the forced eviction of Palestinian people from their own lands, according to a political analyst.
