Palestinian hospitalised after being hit by Israeli sound bomb

A 20 year-old Palestinian is being treated in the hospital after being hit by a sound bomb in the back of the head during an Israeli forces raid in the occupied East Jerusalem neighborhood of Al-Tur yesterday.

A doctor at the Makassed Hospital told Ma’an that Muhammad Hussein Khweis was being treated in the intensive care unit after a sound bomb fired by Israeli forces in his direction hit him in the back of the head, causing him to fall to the ground and lose consciousness.

The doctor said that Khweis suffered from fractures in the back and front of his skull, forehead wounds, a bleeding ear and fractured teeth.
