A Palestinian youth was martyred by Israeli army gunfire in the West Bank, as Israeli forces continued their raids on villages and towns in the area.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced the martyrdom of a Palestinian and the injury of others by Israeli occupation forces’ gunfire during their incursion into the town of Beita south of Nablus.
The ministry stated that the occupation forces fired live ammunition and tear gas during clashes with young men in the area.
Al Jazeera’s correspondent reported that the occupation forces detained two Palestinians before withdrawing to the outskirts of Beita town.
This raised the toll in the West Bank since October 7th to 388 martyrs and 4,440 injured, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health data.
Al Jazeera’s correspondent further reported that the occupation forces invaded the town of Bani Na’im east of Hebron and raided the town of Kafr Qaddum east of Qalqilya in the West Bank, where they surrounded several neighborhoods in the town and searched several houses looking for individuals they describe as wanted.
Meanwhile, local Palestinian platforms broadcasted videos via the Telegram application documenting the moment of the occupation forces’ incursion into Beita town north of Hebron in the West Bank earlier today. The recorded footage showed military vehicles of the occupation roaming the town’s neighborhoods and streets.
As the destructive war on Gaza escalated since October 7th, Israel intensified its operations in the West Bank, resulting in martyrs, casualties, and around 6,940 detainees.
On Friday, the toll of the war on Gaza, where Israel is being charged with “genocide,” rose to 27,947 martyrs and 67,459 injured, according to Palestinian authorities in the sector.
