A Palestinian youth was critically injured on Monday by Israeli occupation forces after attempting to carry out a stabbing attack at the Hizma checkpoint, northeast of occupied Jerusalem.

The occupation forces opened fire at a young man at the Hizma checkpoint, northeast of Jerusalem, after he attempted to carry out a stabbing attack.

The occupation forces were mobilized at the site of the stabbing operation at the Hizma checkpoint, and the roads surrounding the site of the operation were closed.

The stabbing comes in light of the Judaization and settlement plans that the occupied city of Jerusalem is being subjected to, and the Al-Aqsa Mosque is being raided and new facts are being imposed during the Jewish holidays.
