Israeli forces raid Ramallah NGOs, injure three including a shot teenager
Soldiers stormed Addameer and the Union of Palestinian Women's Committees, deployed snipers at a hospital, and detained journalists in a daylight West Bank operation.
What to know
- Israeli forces raided two Palestinian NGOs in Ramallah, Addameer and the Union of Palestinian Women's Committees, and restricted access to the Palestine Medical Complex with snipers.
- At least three Palestinians were injured, including a 14-year-old shot by live ammunition; journalists were assaulted, detained, or blocked from reporting.
- Addameer was previously forced to close after Israel designated it and five other Palestinian NGOs as terrorist organisations in 2021, a claim the UN and EU say lacks evidence.
- Al Jazeera framed the raid as part of a wider campaign against Palestinian civil society alongside ongoing forced displacement in the Negev and West Bank.
“Israeli forces have been raiding one of the compounds that belong to Addameer. The NGO has been closed before by the Israeli forces. It has been deemed by the Israeli army and establishment as a terrorist organisation.”
