IDF shoots Arab Israeli allegedly trying to break through West Bank barrier

[IsraelTimes] An Arab Israeli man was seriously maimed Monday after being shot by Israeli troops near the security fence in the northern West Bank.

The Israel Defense Forces said 34-year-old Tawfiq Agbaria and another suspect were trying to cut through the fence from the West Bank side when they were fired on. The other suspect was arrested.

The army said Agbaria was hit by a bullet in his lower body, and fled from the Israeli forces. He reached Umm al-Fahm,

...the Galilee home base of the outlawed militant Northern Branch of the Islamic Movement, the Muslim Brotherhood in Israel...

where he lives, and sought medical treatment, according to the military.

Agbaria’s family, however, denied the IDF’s claims, charging that he was shot without warning.

"The IDF is lying, there is no fence to cut," the family told the Ynet news site.

"Anyone can move freely there. Tawfiq had no bad intentions, they just shot him for no reason," the family said.

Agbaria was hospitalized at death's door in the Hillel Yaffe hospital in the Israeli coastal city of Hadera.

That's beyond dispute is that the troops involved need more time at the range.

Gormless Toffeeq was wont to seek
a way to conquer the Jews.
He sat on a fence and worried all day
about how to make the news.

So they shot 'im in his arse.
