Israeli forces on Thursday shot and injured a disabled Palestinian man in the southern West Bank city of Hebron in an act the Israeli army described as defensive.Motaz Faraj Ibedo, who was already confined to a wheelchair after a shooting two years earlier, was critically injured and transferred to an Israeli hospital for treatment, the Palestinian Prisoners Society said in a statement.An Israeli army spokeswoman confirmed that a Palestinian man was hospitalized after being shot during an arrest operation. She said a soldier fired at the man when he tried to steal a weapon.She said he threw objects including a gas can at soldiers. Two were injured, she said.Amjad al-Najjar, the director of the PPS office in Hebron, denounced the arrest raid targeting a man confined to a wheelchair.Al-Najjar said that the Israeli authorities were responsible for Ibedo\'s life. He called on the Israeli side to allow the man\'s family and lawyer to visit him in custody.An army spokeswoman denied Ibedo was under arrest and said he was still undergoing treatment in hospital.Ibedo has been confined to a wheelchair since he was shot in 2011 with a so-called dum dum bullet to the abdomen, which ruptured several internal organs and left him permanently disabled.Since that incident, which Ibedo said happened while he was already in custody, he has not been able to walk due to a paralyzed left leg.
