Palestinian martyred, others injured in IOF raids in Jenin

Medical sources at Jenin Hospital said that 19-year-old Saleh al-Kafrini suffered a fatal bullet injury in his chest during clashes between local youths and the IOF in Jenin refugee camp.

Local sources said the young man was rushed to Jenin Hospital while bleeding profusely from his chest before doctors pronounced him dead.

Later, a young man arrived at Ibn Sina Hospital in Jenin with a bullet injury to his leg.

The IOF also kidnaped in the evening senior Islamic Jihad official Bassam al-Saadi along with one of his relatives during a violent raid on his home in Jenin camp.

The IOF is believed to have used physical violence with Saadi and members of his family as images circulated on social media showed some blood stains on the house’s floor.

Later, Saadi’s wife was reportedly transferred to Ibn Sina Hospital after she was assaulted by Israeli troops during the raid.

Local sources said that a power outage plunged different neighborhoods of Jenin City and its refugee camp into darkness during the IOF campaign.

Afterwards, al-Quds Brigades of Islamic Jihad announced that it placed its fighters on high alert to respond to the IOF aggression against Saadi and his family in Jenin.

The Palestinian Prisoner Society (PPS) said that over two dozen people were abducted by heavily-armed Israeli soldiers from the occupied southern West Bank city of al-Khalil and taken away to undisclosed locations.

Similar raids were also reported in Nablus and the nearby town of Beit Furik, which saw two people arrested. At least one person sustained injuries and was rushed to a nearby hospital after Israeli forces opened fire on local residents who resisted the raid.
