The Palestinian Resistance in the city of Jenin confronted the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) as they attempted to storm the city as the sirens in the city and camp of Jenin sounded.

The director of the Jenin Governmental Hospital confirmed that after the occupation forces stormed the city of Jenin, they surrounded the hospital and closed off all of its entrances, demanding all Palestinian citizens exit the hospital.

In turn, the Al-Quds Brigades' Jenin Brigade, as well as Jenin's al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades stated that violent confrontations against the occupation forces and their penetrating vehicles were ongoing in the vicinity of the camp.

The al-Aqsa martyrs Bridage also noted that they had targeted Israeli raiding vehicles with a high-explosive device, confirming definite casualties.

According to the Palestinian Health Ministry, two Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire and had ascended as martyrs while 7 others were reported seriously injured.

In turn, Palestinian media reported multiple targetings of ambulances in a repeated Israeli practice to prevent ambulances from reaching those injured or from reaching the hospital to allow the medical team to attend to them.

Moreover, Palestinian media reported that the IOF had been purposefully burning down trees across the city. This despicable practice is not new, given that the occupation has often done so with the aim of harming Palestinians on one end, as well as eliminating possible "security risks" noting that trees would provide the Resistance with a certain level of safety to advance amid difficult confrontations.

The incursion remains ongoing as the IOF called for reinforcements.

IOF kill Palestinian youth in Aqbat Jaber, camp martyrs 43 since Oct 7

The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced earlier on Friday the martyrdom of Mohammed Hanawi (22 years old), who succumbed to his injuries caused by Israeli occupation forces' gunfire in Aqbat Jaber camp, south of the occupied West Bank's Areeha, earlier this week.

The Israeli forces had stormed the camp and besieged the house where Hanawi was present, shooting him with live ammunition before arresting him. His martyrdom was later announced due to his wounds.

Additionally, the occupation forces seized a vehicle during their withdrawal from the camp.

Medical sources also announced the martyrdom of Amer Nizar Khair Allah (27 years old), who succumbed to his critical injuries sustained in mid-November by an Israeli drone strike on a building in Tulkarm while storming the city.

Martyr Khair Allah was transferred to the consulting hospital in Ramallah due to the severity of his condition hours after being targeted as IOF prevented ambulances from entering the camp.

With his martyrdom, the number of Palestinians from the Tulkarm governorate killed by IOF since the beginning of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip on October 7 rises to 43.

The Israeli aggression continues to grow against cities and towns across the West Bank, especially following the historic Al-Aqsa Flood operation, against fierce confrontations with Palestinian Resistance fighters defending the stormed areas.
