The stream of news regarding the shooting that took place in occupied Al-Quds on Friday night and the conflicting news about the number of casualties plunged Israeli media into a state of panic and shock.

Israel media reported that the final toll of the shooting was 7 dead Israeli settlers and 7 wounded to this hour.

Israeli Channel 13 somewhat praised - or acknowledged - the professionalism of the Palestinian man who carried out the operation, saying his shots were of high accuracy and that he seemed to be experienced. "The aftermath of the shooting was highly gruesome and harsh."

The broadcaster also highlighted how the Palestinian carrying out the operation continued shooting until his very last breath, saying he "kept on firing until he was neutralized. It is also noteworthy that the channel also reported that he carried out the shooting using a pistol.

Israeli Yedioth Ahronoth military affairs commentator Yossi Yehoshua commented on the incident on Twitter, saying "a cruel attack took place this evening in Al-Quds."

"As we indicated yesterday, there was concern in the security establishment about an incident of the sort in Al-Quds or the West Bank" in light of the Israeli occupation forces raid on Jenin on Thursday. "This is the first important test for the government, not what happened in Jenin or the rockets fired from Gaza." 

Israeli Channel 12 military correspondent Nir Dvori said the shooting in Al-Quds "may be related to what happened in Jenin - an act of retaliation."

"The security establishment was aware that the rockets fired from Gaza was merely a symbolic response... because Hamas wants to ignite the situation in the West Bank and Al-Quds," he added.

"All eyes, in fact, were on Al-Quds and 'Israel', but it is very difficult to thwart an attack from a Palestinian with Israeli citizenship," Yehoshua said.

An Israeli Channel 12 correspondent reported that the man who carried out the operation had the "Teudat Zehut", the Israeli occupation's compulsory identity card, "meaning he actually is a Palestinian from Al-Quds."

The correspondent said the shooting was "very painful" and demanded that Israeli police minister Itamar Ben-Gvir be arrested as he "stirred up the hornet's nest."

Various Israeli news outlets reported on the shooting, saying there were concerns about the occupation's security establishment, with "Tel Aviv" mobilizing dozens of police officers to search for the suspects.

The IOF raided the Jenin camp in occupied Palestine's West Bank early on Thursday morning, leaving residents and popular resistance groups with no choice but to defend themselves and confront the occupation forces.

The Palestinian Health Ministry reported that there were 20 injuries as a result of live munition from the Israeli occupation forces, including three civilians in critical condition while adding that there were dozens of suffocations as a result of the IOF raiding the Jenin Governmental Hospital.

The IOF prevented ambulance crews from accessing the Jenin Camp, opening fire directly on the emergency vehicles, the health ministry said. Meanwhile, photos and videos taken in the camp showed the level of destruction and havoc that the IOF caused all over the refugee camp.

Ramallah revealed that taking the martyrs that rose on Thursday in Jenin into account, the camp has lost 19 people due to Israeli aggression since the start of the year.

The Jenin Brigade revealed that it responded to the Israeli occupation's aggression in the refugee camp using small arms and improvised weaponry. The resistance faction that there were numerous injuries among the ranks of the IOF.

Numerous states from all over the world have rushed to condemn the Israeli occupation's aggression on Jenin, which manifested Thursday in the form of a raid on the city's renowned refugee camp, leaving 10 martyred and dozens more injured.
