The number of martyrs killed in the West Bank has risen to a total of nine after Israeli occupation forces raided Jenin, the Qalandiya refugee camp, and the town of al-Fawar in the occupied West Bank.
In al-Fawar, located to the south of al-Khalil, in the southern West Bank, Palestinian youth confronted occupation forces with stones and Molotov cocktails, while Israeli forces opened live fire at them killing Wadih al-Najjar and Mohammad al-Azza.
In the meantime, occupation forces raided the Qalandiya refugee camp, north of occupied al-Quds, killing Ibrahim Zayed.
In the northern West Bank, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad's, al-Quds Brigades - Tulkarm Brigade announced that it executed an operation at dawn today, targeting a grouping of Israeli occupation soldiers with gunfire and locally made explosives, in response to Israeli aggression on Gaza.
The Brigade also targeted an occupation checkpoint at al-Tibah crossing and the Faroun military camp with a heavy barrage of gunfire and explosives.
In Jenin, Resistance fighters attacked several groupings of Israeli occupation forces as well as their armored vehicles on multiple axes. Al-Quds Brigades - Jenin Brigade confirmed that their attacks were precise and dealt casualties among enemy lines.
Occupation continuing brutality
Overnight on Thursday, Israeli Channel 12 reported that an Israeli reconnaissance officer was killed during confrontations in Jenin, and three elite forces soldiers were severely injured.
The occupation has taken brutal measures against Palestinians in the West Bank following the launching of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood on October 7. In fact, the occupation has arrested more than 1,850 Palestinians, most of whom were detained with no charges brought against them.
The arrest campaigns coincide with near-daily raids on cities and towns in the occupied West Bank where Palestinian youth and Resistance fighters bravely confront occupation forces. Occupation forces employed brutal measures in the West Bank in order to limit action in support of Gaza, amid an inhumane aggression on the Strip that has killed more than 9,000 people, most of whom are women and children.
