Zionist soldiers shot dead a Palestinian young man on Sunday evening over claims that he stabbed a Zionist settler on Road 443 near the settlement of Modi'in, west of Ramallah.

A statement issued by the spokeswoman for the occupation police said that the martyr, Anas Montaser Taha, 26 years, tried to escape after stabbing a settler.
The police then shot him.

The statement added that the Zionist settler, also 26, was slightly injured.

Police said the Palestinian is from Kharabtha al-Mesbah village near the operation theater, but the villagers did not recognize the martyr so far.

The incident has not been confirmed yet by any Palestinian source.

However, according to eyewitnesses, the martyr was shot and left to bleed on the street without giving him the treatment until his death was announced.
