The Palestinian News Agency, WAFA, conveyed the heart-wrenching news of a martyr who fell victim to the barrage of bullets unleashed by the Israeli occupation forces during their incursion into the city of Jenin in the West Bank at daybreak. 

According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, the martyr is Mustafa Al-Kastouni (32 years old), who was declared a martyr after being shot in the head, chest, and stomach by the occupation, during a raid on the city.

The Al-Quds Brigades' Jenin Brigade mourned Al-Kastouni, one of the Palestinian Resistance fighters of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades.

The battalion said that the occupation's plan to storm the city was a failure, stressing that the Resistance's fighters confronted the occupation forces' reinforcements, "which later arrived to dismantle and withdraw the special forces."

The Jenin Brigade had confirmed that its resistance fighters were engaged in "violent clashes" with the occupation forces on the Bayader axis, with "heavy salvos of bullets and explosives." Moreover, the battalion clashed with special Israeli forces that infiltrated the eastern neighborhood of Jenin.
