The Israeli occupation forces have seriously injured a father and his little son in the Palestinian village of Nabi Salih in the city of Ramallah.

According to local activist Bilal Tamimi the Zionist forces ambushed a car at the entrance of the village and opened fire. The two-year-old who was in the front yard of his home was shot in the head and his father in the shoulder.

The Israeli attack sparked protests.

The head of the Nabi Saleh Village Council Naji Tamimi says the occupation forces shut the iron gate at the entrance and stormed the area, attacking protesters with live ammunition. At least two people were injured after being shot with rubber-coated steel bullets. One of those wounded was documenting the Israeli invasion on his mobile.
