At approximately 12:30 am on Saturday, 9 May 2015, Israeli
forces opened fire at a number of Palestinian farmers who were
approximately 300 meters away from the separation fence in the vicinity
of the Islamic Cemetery east of Jabaliya. As a result, two farmers were
injured. Al Mezan identified them as follows:
- Raed Suliman Al Farra, 41, who sustained shrapnel wounds in the left eye, left hand, stomach, and chest;
- Karam Salim Abu Hadaied, 34, sustained shrapnel wounds in the stomach and chest.
Medical sources at Shifa Hospital described their injuries as
moderate. In his affidavit to Al Mezan farmer Raed Al Farra stated that
he had gone with his niece Ibrahim and with Karam Abu Hadaied to harvest
barley on a piece of land owned by the Al Zaieni family. While they
were working with the tractor, Israeli forces opened fire on them.
