According to the Health Ministry in Ramallah, at least 400 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank have been martyred at the hands of Israeli occupation forces and settlers since the start of the war on Gaza on October 7.
Medical sources confirmed on Wednesday that Israeli occupation forces killed 26-year-old Palestinian Aref Qadoumi on Tuesday night during a raid on Jenin and its camp.
Several towns and cities across the occupied West Bank continue to witness large-scale incursions consistently, resulting in almost daily reports of martyrs, wounded and detained.
Detainees are being subjected to severe beatings and on-site interrogations, with threats even reaching their families.
Additionally, Israeli forces are engaging in widespread sabotage and destruction of homes and infrastructure across the West Bank.
