The ongoing Israeli offensive in the occupied West Bank has claimed the life of 23-year-old Sundus Shalabi, who was eight months pregnant, along with her unborn son. Israeli snipers allegedly shot her on Sunday as she and her husband tried to flee their home, and delayed emergency services.
Her husband remains in critical condition. In a separate incident, 21-year-old Rahaf Abdullah was also killed, bringing the total number of Palestinians killed since the offensive began to 73.
As Israel extends its “Operation Iron Wall” into the Nur Shams camp, thousands have been displaced and the humanitarian toll continues to rise.
