NABLUS, (PIC)– A Palestinian teenager from Hawara village, south of Nablus, died on Tuesday of serious injuries sustained eight years ago when he was ten years old in a car accident.

Family members said that Qassam Dumaidi was hit by a Jewish settler near the main road of Hawara and was in coma since then.

The main road in Hawara is described by citizens as the “death road” due to the numerous hit and run accidents recorded on it.

In a related incident on Monday night, a Palestinian young man was injured when an Israeli army vehicle rammed into his car south of Bethlehem.

Medical sources said that Khalifa Mahamid, 23, suffered moderate injuries as a result of the incident.
