GAZA STRIP (Ma'an) -- A Palestinian in his twenties was injured with Israeli live fire in eastern Beit Hanoun in the northern Gaza Strip on Tuesday.
Gaza Ministry of Health spokesperson Ashraf al-Qidra told Ma’an that a 27-year-old was injured by Israeli forces in the arm in the northern Gaza Strip.
Al-Qidra said that the man was taken to the Beit Hanoun Hospital for treatment, where his condition was reported as moderate.
An Israeli army spokesperson said she was "not aware of anything unusual" in the besieged coastal enclave, and could not comment on the reason for Israeli live fire in Beit Hanoun.
Beit Hanoun is located near the northeastern border of the Gaza Strip, and has frequently been the site of violent clashes between Gazans and Israeli forces in recent months.
