Israeli forces have gunned down four Palestinian youths, including a teenager, during a fresh violent raid in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin.
Six other Palestinians were also injured by the Israeli troops’ live fire during the attack that targeted the city on Sunday, with the regime’s forces besieging Martyr Khalil Suleiman and Ibn Sina Government Hospitals, the official Palestinian Wafa news agency reported.
The agency quoted the director of Al-Razi Hospital as identifying the latest victims of Israeli forces’ brutal raid as Ammar Muhammad Abu al-Wafa (21 years old), Ahmed Abu al-Hija (20 years old), Muhammad Mahmoud Fraihat (27 years old) and Mahmoud Khaled Abu al-Hija (17 years old).
According to the report, a large group of the regime’s forces, accompanied by a military bulldozer, stormed the city of Jenin from several directions. They surrounded the government hospital, the headquarters of the Red Crescent Society, and Ibn Sina Hospital.
Israeli forces also deployed snipers on the roofs of some high-rise buildings, while their bulldozers were destroying several streets in the city’s neighborhoods and the outskirts of the Jenin refugee camp. They cut off electricity to a number of neighborhoods and the surroundings of the camp.
The regime’s forces also attacked people’s homes, destroying a large number of Palestinians’ cars and causing damage to the city’s infrastructure.
During the raid, Israeli aircraft flew over the city of Jenin, conducting intense reconnaissance flights.
The regime has ramped up its aggression against Palestinians across the West Bank, killing hundreds of them throughout the occupied territory, ever since October 7, when it launched a war of genocide against the besieged Gaza Strip.
Nearly 15,000 people were killed in the regime’s bloody onslaught against Gaza before a temporary four-day ceasefire entered into forces on Friday.
