IOF kill 4 in Jenin; Resistance fighters confront Israeli incursions
The Palestinian Ministry of Health reported on Tuesday that Israeli occupation forces killed four Palestinians in Jenin, in the northern West Bank.
Several Palestinian youths were martyred after they were targeted by an Israeli drone.
Two powerful explosions were heard earlier at dawn in the vicinity of Jenin camp, in the occupied West Bank, according to the Palestinian Wafa Agency.
Palestinian Resistance fighters confronted the incursions of the Israeli occupation forces into several areas in Jenin and targeted an Israeli occupation army vehicle with a homemade explosive device inside the camp.
The Israeli occupation stormed Jenin camp at 3:30 am, accompanied by several bulldozers that destroyed the infrastructure in the camp and sabotaged the citizens’ properties. Moreover, snipers were deployed on the roofs of a number of high-rise buildings, and a siege was imposed on several neighborhoods in the region.
Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades in Jenin said its fighters confronted with heavy bullets and explosive devices the occupation forces storming the city of Jenin.
Eyewitnesses from inside the camp indicated that Israeli army forces were stationed outside the emergency entrances to Jenin Governmental Hospital, as well as Al-Razi and Al-Amal hospitals.
Activist Ammar al-Khader from Jenin, on his part, confirmed in an interview for Al Mayadeen that “Israeli occupation forces had no goal to enter Jenin other than sabotage, aggress on residents, and attack safe people.”
Meanwhile, journalist Amro Jaradat said during a call with Al Mayadeen that the occupation stormed the Jenin camp and imposed a siege on all entrances to the camp.
He pointed out that the occupation forces opened fire randomly on civilian residents of the camp and any civilian vehicle, adding that the occupation forces were obstructing the work of medical and journalistic teams and targeting them.
In a related context, the Israeli army raided several governorates in the West Bank, focusing on the town of Silwad, east of Ramallah, and arrested 40 Palestinians, including children and three women. Among the women are the wife of prisoner Amjad al-Najjar and the mother of the two prisoners Moaz and Numan al-Najjar, in addition to the wife of exiled liberated prisoner Yasser Hasan.
For his part, activist Ramez Awwad from Ramallah said in a call with Al Mayadeen that the occupation forces stormed Silwad, Beit Lahm, and Uqaba in Tubas and arrested a number of Palestinians.
The director of the Prisoners Club in Tubas, Kamal Bani Odeh, said Israeli occupation forces arrested Palestinian youth Zaid Abdel Karim Ghanem (20 years old) and Khaled Ahmed Abu Hamad to pressure his son Ahmad to surrender himself.
In Nablus in the West Bank, Resistance fighters confronted with gunfire invading Israeli forces who stormed the Askar camp.
In the same context, Palestinian Resistance fighters confronted Israeli occupation forces’ incursions into the town of Taffuh in al-Khalil as the latter fired live bullets and sound bombs at civilians in their homes and erected military checkpoints at all entrances to al-Khalil and its towns and villages.
The Israeli occupation has escalated its aggression against the cities of the West Bank, since the beginning of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood and launched a mass arrest campaign, amid escalating confrontations between Resistance fighters and the occupation forces, coinciding with the ongoing Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip.
