Israeli occupation forces had stormed the vicinity of the camp and surrounded a house, which led to the outbreak of confrontations.
The Ministry of Health reported three injuries among the Palestinians by Israeli occupation gunfire, including one in the abdomen.
Earlier today, Israeli occupation forces launched a series of raids in the occupied West Bank, including the town of Kafr Qaddum, east of Qalqilya, the Dheisheh camp in Beit Lahm, and the Aqabat Jaber camp in Areeha, where they arrested six members of the same family.
This comes just one day after Israeli occupation forces shot dead Palestinian youth Saleh Sabra, during their attempt to storm the Askar refugee camp, east of Nablus in the occupied West Bank.
Marking one of the bloodiest years in Palestine, the number of people martyred in the West Bank and Gaza Strip so far has risen to 151, including 33 martyrs in the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, which ended with a ceasefire on May 13.
