Israeli forces kill 7 more Palestinians in West Bank
Israeli forces have carried out fresh raids in several areas of the occupied West Bank, killing at least seven more Palestinians.
The regime’s troops laid siege to and fired shells at a residential building in the town of Tammun, killing two Palestinian men.
Local authorities have identified one of the victims as 47-year-old Hani Bani Awda Abu Asif.
Elsewhere in the West Bank, other raids by Israeli forces took the lives of at least two more Palestinians in Jenin and 3 others in the city of Qabatiya.
Israeli operation ‘involved lethal war-like tactics’
UN chief’s spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said that “operations carried out by Israeli forces in… Jenin today involved lethal war-like tactics”.
Dujarric added that the operation “seems to exceed law enforcement standards”.
“This has included air strikes and shoulder-fired explosive projectiles, resulting in fatalities.”
Earlier, the Palestinian Health Ministry and eyewitnesses reported four Palestinians had been killed in Israeli attacks on the occupied West Bank.
The latest killing of the Palestinians in the West Bank takes place amid intensified clashes between Palestinian Resistance fighters and the occupying regime’s forces.
Since Monday night, Israeli regime forces have been trying to storm the town of Qabatiya, south of Jenin.
Also, settlers shielded by Israeli forces stormed the town of Bireh in the occupied West Bank, setting fire to Palestinian property and vehicles.
Meanwhile, “armed clashes” between Palestinian Resistance fighters and Israeli forces took place in other parts of the West Bank, including in Ramallah after Zionist forces stormed the village of Kafr Malik.
The Israeli regime forces have intensified brutal attacks on the Palestinians in the West Bank since the regime launched the campaign of genocide in the Gaza Strip in October 2023.
Since tensions escalated in the Palestinian lands, the occupying forces have killed some 770 Palestinians and abducted at least 11,500 more in the West Bank.
