The martyr Muhammad Rasul Draghma was the son of the Hamas leader Omar Draghma, who was martyred inside one of the occupation's prisons at the beginning of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood after being arrested on October 9th of last year.
The Israeli occupation forces stormed the al-Far'a camp with several military vehicles and deployed snipers at its entrance, while intense confrontations accompanied by powerful explosions erupted between Palestinian Resistance fighters and the raiding forces.
In Jenin, a Palestinian youth was wounded by Israeli occupation forces' gunfire in the town of Fandaqumiya. The occupation forces obstructed the arrival of an ambulance to treat the injured.
Simultaneously, Israeli occupation forces raided Tulkarm and stationed their military vehicles in several areas in the city.
In the same context, several Israeli military vehicles raided the city of Qalqilya, while occupation soldiers stormed a house in the Sufin area without any reported injuries or detainments.
Earlier, three Palestinians were injured by live ammunition, and a child was injured by rubber bullets in an attack launched by Israeli settlers on the village of Burqa, east of Ramallah, in the occupied West Bank.
Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Ramallah reported that the Israeli occupation military launched a wide-scale arrest campaign during its raids on several West Bank governorates early Friday, coinciding with the first day of Eid al-Fitr.
It is noteworthy that on Wednesday, the Israeli occupation forces imposed a suffocating siege on the West Bank, especially in the northern governorates, coinciding with Israeli reconnaissance aircraft flying over the skies of Jenin, Tulkarm, Nablus, and Tubas, according to Al Mayadeen's sources.
