Thousands of Palestinians took part in the funeral procession and burial ceremony of Nafe’, and marched carrying Palestinian flags, chanting slogans against the occupation, the assassination, and ongoing Israeli violations.

All wounded residents, except for the kidnapped man, Ali, have been moved to the Khalil Suleiman Governmental Hospital in Jenin, while dozens have been treated for the effects of tear gas inhalation.
National and Islamic factions in Jenin called for retaliation against the Israeli military for its ongoing and escalating violations and assaults against the Palestinians, their lands and property.
