Hebron - Ma'an
Two children were injured Friday when an ordnance exploded near Yatta, south of Hebron. Luay Rabai, 11, and Islam Rabai, 13, were taken to a hospital in Beersheba, Israel by military helicopter, local popular committee coordinator Hafeth al-Harani told Ma'an. An Italian peace organization Operation Dove, which sends volunteers to support villages in south Hebron, said the two children would need surgery to their legs. It noted that the incident happened in an area used by the Israeli army for military training. The children were grazing their flocks when the ordnance exploded, Operation Dove volunteers said.
