The Palestinian Red Crescent Society said that Israeli occupation forces handed over the body of martyr Jihad al-Alouna to his family in the eastern neighborhood of Jenin city in the occupied West Bank.
Meanwhile, occupation forces stormed the eastern neighborhood, surrounding a house and threatening to bomb the family home if residents did not evacuate. In a further escalation, Israeli Eitan armored fighting vehicles (AFVs) were deployed throughout the city, sealing off its entrances, while the destruction of infrastructure in the eastern neighborhood continued, intensifying the already dire conditions and deepening the suffering of the local residents.
