The Palestinian Ministry of Health has announced the death of the Palestinian child Moaz Bani Shamsa, from the town of Beita in Nablus, in the northern West Bank, after being shot by the occupation forces (IOF) during their raids into the West Bank.

Moaz Ashraf Faleh Bani Shamsa, 17, was killed after being hit by a bullet in the chest in Beita in the West Bank.

Israeli occupation forces raided several areas in the West Bank, on Friday, arresting seven Palestinians, including a journalist, while simultaneously offering Israeli settlers protection as they carried out a provocative parade in the occupied old city of al-Quds.

During the raids, confrontations broke out between the resisting youth and the occupation forces in several parts of the city, during which the IOF fired tear gas canisters, and stun grenades without reporting any injuries.

In the village of Sinjil north of Ramallah, Israeli forces arrested three Palestinians, Abdul Hafiz, Mohammed Shabbaneh, and Hamza Tawfesh, after raiding and searching their homes, and stole three vehicles and a sum of money.

Israeli soldiers also raided the village of Bidrus, west of Ramallah, where they were confronted by the Resistance.

In al-Khalil, Israeli occupation forces stormed the towns of Yatta to the south and Bani Naim to the east, and deployed in several neighborhoods in both towns. They also raided the town of Beita south of Nablus and the villages of Baka al-Hatab and Haja in Qalqilya, spraying racist slogans on the walls of citizens' homes and tearing up pictures of martyrs and detainees.

Meanwhile, in the town of Beit Fajjar south of Beit Lahm, a number of Palestinians suffered from suffocation due to the Israeli occupation forces firing tear gas canisters toward their homes.

It is also worth noting that the Israeli occupation forces continue to obstruct Palestinians from making their way to the Holy Al-Aqsa mosque for prayer, especially on Fridays. However, hundreds made their way today while others were detained as they tried to reach the mosque.

Israeli intelligence fears 'explosive' month of Ramadan in West Bank

Israeli military and intelligence authorities, on February 5, expressed concern regarding the upcoming month of Ramadan, recommending that concerned authorities ease measures against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and al-Quds.

The Muslim holy month of Ramadan is set to commence in early March this year, and the holy month is synonymous with several occasions that Muslims celebrate. Recently, the occupation has severely restricted the entry of Palestinians to one of the holiest sites, al-Aqsa Mosque, in occupied al-Quds. The measure comes hand in hand with increased systematic oppression of Palestinians in the occupied territory, including wide-scale detention campaigns and assassinations against Palestinians in the West Bank.

In this context, Israeli military and intelligence officials have recommended that restrictions be eased, fearing that "Hamas could take advantage of the most important time for Muslims as a chance to ignite the [West Bank]," Yoav Zitun, the military affairs analyst for Israeli news website Ynet, wrote.

At the core of discussions in Israeli decision-making quarters is allowing Palestinian workers entry into '48 occupied territories. According to Zitun, the Israeli authorities are discussing a process to permit 100,000 Palestinians into occupied territories. Thousands of Palestinian families are seeking work opportunities in occupied territories due to degenerating economic conditions in the occupied West Bank and the Gaza Strip, which comes as a direct result of the Israeli occupation of Palestine.

Since "Israel" launched its aggression on the Gaza Strip, it also banned all Palestinian workers from entering '48 occupied territories.
