Six Palestinians were killed and several others were injured Thursday as a result of Israeli assaults in the occupied West Bank, the Palestinian Ministry of Health confirmed.

Earlier, two Palestinians were killed and four others were injured by Israeli occupation forces' gunfire during their ongoing raid on the Balata refugee camp, east of Nablus, the Health Ministry announced.

It stated that an elderly Palestinian woman, aged 80, succumbed to critical injuries to her chest and leg. Later, the Ministry reported the martyrdom of another Palestinian.

The Palestine Red Crescent Society reported that a 65-year-old man and three young men were injured by live bullets, one of whom suffered a critical head wound, adding that Israeli forces prevented ambulance vehicles from entering the Balata refugee camp and opened fire at the vehicles, obstructing the delivery of humanitarian and medical aid.

At least 14 Palestinians detained from West Bank

In a related context, the Palestinian Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoners Society stated that Israeli forces detained at least 14 Palestinians from the occupied West Bank, including an injured individual and two children, in addition to former detainees who had been previously released from Israeli prisons.

The statement noted that the detentions took place across the governorates of Nablus, Ramallah, Jenin, al-Khalil, and Tulkarm, accompanied by assaults, threats against detainees and their families, and extensive property damage to Palestinian homes.

Additionally, Israeli forces detained three citizens from the towns of Halhul and Sa'ir early Thursday morning and detained over 50 individuals, subjecting them to field interrogations in the town of Beit Awwa, southwest of al-Khalil.

Israeli forces continued to block entrances to towns, refugee camps, and the city of al-Khalil, intensifying their oppressive measures in the old city’s neighborhoods and at military checkpoints leading to the Ibrahimi Mosque.

In Ramallah and al-Bireh governorate, Israeli forces detained four Palestinians, including a child, during raids early Thursday morning.
