An Israeli from the Egoz Israeli elite military unit was killed after getting shot in the chest during the battle of the Fury of Jenin, the Israeli occupation forces spokesperson stated on Wednesday.

The IOF clarified that the soldier suffered a critical injury as a medical unit provided him with medical aid on the scene, as he was later transported via a military helicopter to the "Shaare Zedek" Medical Center, however, he died before reaching the hospital.

Earlier, Al-Quds Brigades - Jenin Brigade confirmed in an exclusive voice message to Al Mayadeen that its fighter is well and that the battle will proceed according to what the Brigade had planned.

The Resistance group added that its locally produced explosive devices will lead it to victory in the battle of the Fury of Jenin.

They extended their greetings to "our steadfast people in al-Quds, the West Bank, Gaza, the occupied Palestinian territories in 1948, and the diaspora, and to our resolute people in the Jenin camp," adding, "We pledge to Allah and then to you that we will always be on the frontlines, defending our people and our land, no matter the sacrifices."  

They indicated that Al-Quds Brigades - Jenin Brigade executed a number of strikes and deadly ambushes against the occupation forces during the [today's] battle."

The group added that a special unit of the Brigade ambushed IOF ground troops in the Al-Damaj neighborhood scoring casualties among the invading force's lines.

The Brigade also released a video clip affirming that its military capabilities are still intact.

The footage includes scenes of fighters from the Jenin Brigade in their military operations room, discussing military plans, as well as other scenes of fighters equipped with advanced rifles guarding the alleys of the camp at night, indicating their preparedness to deal with the IOF.

Meanwhile, Palestine TV reported that the occupation's military reinforcements headed towards Jenin camp from Haifa Street, Al-Nasirah Street, and Nablus Street.  

Israeli media reported on "intense clashes near Jenin Hospital," describing the current battle as "the toughest since the beginning of the operation."  

Social media accounts circulated information about an attempted Israeli incursion into the hospital and said that Resistance fighters confronted the intruding force and repelled it.  

The Palestinian Ministry of Health confirmed that 12 people were martyred as a result of the Israeli aggression on Jenin which was launched postmidnight on Monday; however, Resistance fighters have been able to thwart multiple incursions of the IOF scoring casualties among enemy lines by executing thoroughly planned ambushes on the intruding troops.

The Palestinian Red Crescent confirmed that up until 9:00 PM, its crew members treated 117 injuries 12 of whom were in critical condition.
