Thousands of Palestinians attended the funeral procession of twelve Palestinians, including four children, killed by Israeli occupation forces during two days of aggression on the Jenin refugee camp in the northern part of the occupied West Bank.
Video clips circulating on social media showed Palestinians carrying the martyr's bodies on their shoulders during the massive funeral procession in Jenin.
Mourners condemned the Israeli atrocities, chanting slogans in solidarity with the Resistance and its fighters who valiantly resisted Israeli violence and booted the occupation's troops out of the camp.

The funerals took place in alleys still lined with piles of rubble and flattened or scorched cars in the aftermath of the aggression which inflicted heavy damage on the infrastructure.
Earlier, the Palestinian Health Ministry reported 12 Palestinians were killed in Jenin and more than 140 were wounded.
The brutal aggression has raised warnings from international humanitarian groups amid calls to hold "Israel" responsible for its ongoing crimes against Palestinians.
