The Palestinian Resistance is fiercely confronting the Israeli occupation and inflicting heavy losses among its ranks as the IOF continue their wide-scale invasion of the northern West Bank. During the early hours of Friday, "Israel" particularly concentrated its forces on Jenin and Nablus.
Al Mayadeen's correspondent in occupied Palestine affirmed that the Palestinian Resistance confronted the Israeli occupation forces in al-Damj, Jenin, forcing them to call for reinforcement.
The IOF also besieged a Palestinian house in the al-Zababda village in southeastern Jenin and launched several grenades at it, while preventing Palestinian Red Crescent crews from coming to the aid of those trapped inside.
Our correspondent also reported that three Palestinians were killed in the same village after the IOF bombed their car. "Israel" is currently holding their bodies hostage.
