Israeli occupation forces shot and killed a 21-year-old Palestinian in the village of Salem, east of Nablus, in the occupied West Bank. 

The Palestinian Ministry of Health said that Omar Abed al-Hakim Shtayyeh was martyred after sustaining a fatal gunshot wound to the head during an Israeli raid on the village, where occupation troops opened fire at him. Initially, Shtayyeh was transferred to the hospital before succumbing to his wounds. 

His martyrdom comes amid continued Israeli aggression on the West Bank, which includes the city of Tulkarm and refugee camps in the same governorate. There, Israeli occupation forces have intensified their attacks, increasing the number of forces deployed in the area and raiding homes while forcibly displacing citizens. Concurrently, Israeli forces launched a large-scale raid on the Nur Shams refugee camp and its surrounding neighborhoods, particularly in Jabal al-Nasr and Harat al-Mahjar, storming homes and forcibly expelling residents as part of their ongoing military operations.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that a large number of forces had stormed the village of al-Mazra'a al-Gharbiya near the city of Ramallah. 

Meanwhile, illegal Israeli settlers assaulted this town of Duman, in southern Nablus, setting fire to six Palestinian homes and a vehicle, the head of the town's council, Suleiman Dawabsheh stated. 

On Friday, several Palestinians were also arrested by Israeli occupation forces, including eight from al-Khalil, three in Kisan, east of Beit Lahm, and one person from Beit Furik. 

Since the onset of the Israeli genocidal war on Gaza on October 7, 2023, Israeli forces and settlers have intensified their assaults across the occupied West Bank, including al-Quds, unleashing a wave of violence that has left approximately 930 Palestinians martyred and nearly 7,000 wounded, according to official Palestinian figures.
