JERUSALEM, May 27 (Xinhua) -- Israeli troops shot and injured a Palestinian woman in East Jerusalem on Sunday night, after the woman did not stop as the forces told her.

A video clip that surfaced on the internet showed the woman walking slowly on a pavement in Pisgat Ze'ev, a Jewish settlement neighborhood in Jerusalem, when the Israeli border police surrounded her before shooting.

No other civilians were seen near the Palestinian woman.

According to a Israeli police statement, the paramilitary border police forces "carried out a procedure for apprehending" the woman after shooting at her legs, as she "approached them and did not obey their calls."

Palestinian reports, however, said the woman has a hearing impairment, which prevented her from hearing the warning.

She was taken to the Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem with "moderate shooting injuries," a spokesperson for the hospital said.

The incident came amid a rising tension between Israelis and Palestinians, as at least 110 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire since March 30, the first day of the ongoing Palestinian anti-Israel "March of Return" mass rally.
