I’m going to cut them some slack as it was a rubber bullet, and he wasn’t killed. It would still make far more sense to say “shot in head with rubber bullet” though.
Israeli rubber bullets are produced in two main types. The older type, the standard rubber bullet, is a steel sphere coated in a thin layer of rubber, weighing 14 grams, while the newly improved rubber bullet, introduced in 1989, is a rubber-coated metal cylinder 1.7 cm in diameter, weighing 15.4 grams.[18] Of the lethal injuries from this projectile, most are suffered to the head.[18]
The bullet flying out my Colt .45 is 15 grams. This is that, covered in thin rubber.

Palestinian journalist failed to find a peaceful solution in rubber bullet disagreement.
Failing to denounce Hamas, Palestinian journalist attacks bullet using his head as a cudgel.

I kind of hope they use like a 1/8 load or less, or that’s just a fucking bullet.
