According to the ministry, a doctor, 25, was slain early in the morning outside his residence in Qabatiya, close to Jenin, a bastion of Palestinian armed organizations in the northern part of the area.
According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, six Palestinians were murdered by Israeli forces on Saturday in the occupied West Bank. A doctor, 25, was slain early in the morning outside his residence in Qabatiya, close to Jenin, a bastion of Palestinian armed organizations in the northern part of the area.
At el-Bireh, which is close to Ramallah, another Palestinian was killed. In Jenin, which was the site of the worst Israeli raid in the West Bank in almost 20 years, four more individuals were killed by Israeli army fire during an entry by a large number of armored vehicles.
The Israeli army was encircling Jenin’s public hospital and the Ibn Sina facility, witnesses said AFP on Saturday, and troops were examining ambulances. They also claimed to have seen a lot of automatic weapon combat.
Since Hamas’ cross-border attack on Israel on October 7 last month, when terrorists from the Gaza Strip murdered 1,200 people, the majority of them were civilians, the West Bank has experienced an increase in violence, according to Israeli officials.
Since then, Israel has retaliated by bombing and launching a ground war in Gaza, killing, according to the Hamas administration, up to 15,000 people, the majority of whom were civilians.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health of the Palestinian Authority reports that Israeli settlers and troops had murdered some 230 Palestinians in the West Bank.
