Two young men were fatally shot Friday by the Israeli occupation forces in the city of Qalqilya. The Palestinian Ministry of Health reported that the General Authority for Civil Affairs confirmed the deaths of Mahmoud Hassan Abdul Rahman Zaid, 28, and Ihab Abdul Karim Musa Abu Hamed, 29.

According to witnesses, a special unit of the Israeli occupation forces fired upon the vehicle occupied by Zaid and Abu Hamed in central Qalqilya. The incident occurred after the forces stormed the city through its eastern entrance.

The gunfire led to the deaths of the two men, causing their vehicle to crash into a curb in front of a local shop before coming to a halt.

Israeli forces prevented medical teams and civilians from accessing the scene. Local sources reported that the IOF confiscated the vehicle and detained the bodies of the deceased before withdrawing from the city. Additionally, two Palestinians who were nearby sustained injuries during the incident.

The deaths of Zaid and Abu Hamed bring the total number of Palestinians killed in the West Bank since October 7 to 552, a stark figure that includes 135 children, according to the Ministry of Health.

A young Palestinian man, early Friday morning, was wounded by Israeli occupation forces storming the Qaddura refugee camp in Ramallah, occupied West Bank.

Palestinian media later reported a second injury near al-Manara Square in Ramallah. Moreover, it was also reported that the Israeli occupation forces fired tear gas at Ramallah Hospital.

It is important to note that, initially, the Red Crescent reported that the Israeli occupation forces were preventing them from attending to the injured.

In the context of escalating assaults in the West Bank, the Israeli occupation forces stormed the Jala area in Beit Ummar town north of al-Khalil, the city of al-Bireh, the Jalazone camp, and the town of Silwad northeast of Ramallah.

IOF forced to withdraw from al-Far'a camp due to explosives detonation

Yesterday, Al Mayadeen correspondent reported the withdrawal of occupation forces from the al-Far'a camp, south of Tubas, in the occupied West Bank.

The al-Aqsa Brigades – al-Far'a Camp announced that the Resistance successfully detonated an explosive device targeting the invading Israeli occupation vehicles in the market area of the al-Far'a camp, disabling a vehicle.

At dawn on Thursday, the Israeli occupation forces stormed the camp and its surroundings with several military patrols. Violent confrontations erupted as the Israeli occupation forces attempted to storm the camp.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent also reported that the Israeli occupation forces carried out a raid campaign in Surif, north of al-Khalil, seizing several vehicles.

Moreover, the Israeli occupation forces detained, once again, Aziz Dweik, the head of the Palestinian Legislative Council, from his home in al-Khalil just days after his release.
