Hebron, September 24 (RHC)-- Israeli forces have clashed with Palestinians in the occupied West Bank following the funeral of a young woman shot dead by the Tel Aviv regime's troops.

The clashes erupted between the Palestinians and the Israeli troops in the West Bank city of al-Khalil, also known as Hebron, on Wednesday when thousands of Palestinians, who were carrying the flag of Palestine, participated in the funeral ceremony of Hadil Salah Hashlamoun.

The Israeli forces fired stun grenades and used tear gas against the Palestinians, who responded by throwing stones. There are as of yet no reports on possible casualties as a result of the incident.

The 18-year-old female student was fatally shot by Israeli forces on Tuesday morning and was left to bleed on a sidewalk in Hebron. A video published by PalMedia shows Israeli forces and settlers standing around, smiling and laughing in some cases, while the young woman bleeds to death.

Reports said she later died of her injuries in Shaare Zedek Hospital in occupied Jerusalem. Members of the Hashlamoun family confirmed the death of the woman with her father, Salaheddin, saying she was "martyred."

The people partaking in the funeral chanted slogans against the Tel Aviv regime and condemned the Israeli brutalities against Palestinians in the al-Aqsa Mosque compound in East Jerusalem. They also called on the international community to break its silence over the Israeli crimes against the oppressed Palestinian people.

In recent days, Israeli soldiers have attacked and injured dozens of Palestinians in rallies held against Tel Aviv’s military assaults on the al-Aqsa Mosque, which started on September 13th.
