A Palestinian was martyred on Tuesday after Zionist troops fired on his car near Tulkarem in the northern West Bank, Palestinian security sources said.

The sources said his car then veered off the road, and it was not clear whether the gunfire or the subsequent crash killed him.

There was no immediate comment from the Israeli army, but the police described the incident as a “traffic accident”.
