An Israeli soldier shot a Palestinian man, leaving him paralysed from the neck down, after an altercation over a portable electric generator, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.
Video of the incident, which occurred on Friday near Hebron in the south of the West Bank, appears to show Haroun Abu Aram, 24, along with three other men, attempting to hold on to the generator while Israeli soldiers seek to take it away.
The tussle continues until, off-camera, a single gunshot is heard, followed by screaming, before the camera moves to reveal Abu Aram lying motionless on the ground
