“Soldiers Injure 67 Palestinians In Al-Aqsa”
By IMEMC News - April 23, 2022

*Updated*: The Israeli attacks against the worshipers in Al-Aqsa, in
occupied Jerusalem, led to the injury of at least 67 Palestinians,
including women and children, and a young man who is in a critical
condition.

Walid Sharif, 24, from Beit Hanina north of Jerusalem, suffered a
profoundly serious head injury near the al-Magharba Gate before the
soldiers abducted and assaulted him.

The soldiers dragged the wounded Palestinian out of the courtyards of
Al-Aqsa Mosque. Then, they assaulted him despite his serious wound before
taking him to Hadassah Medical Center. Still, the army and the police were
deployed there in the dozens and prevented the family from seeing him for
several hours.

His brother Abdul-Rahman, a medic in Al-Aqsa, said Walid suffered a skull
fracture and Hemorrhage in the brain after the soldiers shot him with a
rubber-coated steel bullet in the head from a very close range.

He added that his brother is in a coma after his brain was deprived of
oxygen for a while. However, there has been no official confirmation
whether the young man is brain dead.

The doctors at the Hadassah Israeli Medical Center in occupied Jerusalem
said there is nothing more they can do for the young man and that he is in
a coma in the intensive care unit.

Although Walid was shot in the afternoon, the family could not see him
until the early night hours.

67 Palestinians, including women and children, suffered the effects of tear
gas inhalation and cuts and bruises.

Most of the injuries were in the upper body, including the head and face.

The Israeli army and the police continued their invasions into the
courtyards of the Al-Aqsa Mosque for the sixth consecutive day, in the
occupied capital Jerusalem, in the West Bank, and injured 31 Palestinians,
including two who suffered life-threatening wounds.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said its medics provided
treatment to thirty-one Palestinians and moved eleven of them to hospitals,
including two in critical conditions.

The PRCS added that the soldiers also tried to prevent its medics from
reaching the holy site and attacked some of them.

The PRCS also said that the soldiers abducted one of the injured
Palestinians after barring its medics from reaching him.

Also, the Israeli gas bombs and concussion grenades caused a fire in one of
the trees in the Al-Aqsa compound.

On Thursday, the soldiers injured twenty Palestinians
