The Palestinian General Authority of Civil Affairs informed the Ministry of Health this morning of the death of 33-year-old Yousef Emad Ibrahim Al-Amer, who was killed by Israeli soldiers in the town of Qabatia town, south of Jenin in the occupied West Bank’s northern part.
Al-Amer was declared dead and transferred by medical teams to Jenin Governmental Hospital.
Palestinian sources confirmed Al-Amer, a resident of Jenin refugee camp, was killed in an agricultural shed that the soldiers bombed in Qabatia.
Media sources said a second Palestinian was discovered in the same vicinity. Israeli Channel 12 reported that “the army killed a wanted Palestinian and arrested another near Qabatia.”
The General Authority also reported that 21-year-old Qussai Amin Suleiman Sa’adi was wounded by Israeli gunfire inside the same structure and subsequently detained.
Jenin continues to face intensifying assaults by Israeli forces and paramilitary colonizers, amid a sustained military campaign targeting refugee camps in the northern occupied West Bank for over seven months.
In related news, The Palestinian Civil Affairs Authority, the Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs, and the Palestinian Prisoners’ Society have announced the death of Ahmad Sa’id Saleh Tazaz’a, a 20-year-old administrative detainee from Jenin, who passed away in Megiddo Prison after being held there since May 6, 2025, without charges or trial.
On Saturday evening, illegal Israeli paramilitary colonizers and occupation forces shot and killed a Palestinian young man, Mo’in Sobhi Mohammad Asfar, 23 and wounded eight others, after invading the town of Aqraba, southeast of Nablus in the northern occupied West Bank.
Since the beginning of the year, Israeli forces and colonizers have killed 194 Palestinian citizens in the occupied West Bank, including 37 children and 6 women.
