On Friday dawn, Israeli soldiers killed three young Palestinian men and injured at least twelve in Jenin, in the occupied West Bank’s northern part.
More than 40 Israeli armored military vehicles invaded Jenin city and the areas surrounding the Jenin refugee camp while military helicopters and drones flew overhead.
Medical sources said the soldiers killed a young man, Abdullah Bassam Abu Al-Haija, 28و from Al-Yamoun town, after shooting him with several live rounds, before he was rushed to hospital where he succumbed to his wounds.
Sources added that another young man, identified as Ayser Mohammad Al-Amer, 25, from the Jenin refugee camp, was shot and injured, while the army opened fire at an ambulance blocking it from reaching Al-Amer, causing him to bleed to death.
The soldiers also killed a third Palestinian, Jawad Abdul-Salam Turki, 22, near an UNRWA School in Jenin refugee camp.
The locals found his corpse with several bullets wounds close to Martyr Shirin Abu Akleh Street, close to the school.
At least twelve other young men were injured after the army shot them with live rounds, one of whom suffered a serious injury. The wounded young men were transported to local hospitals for medical intervention.
Armed Palestinian resistance fighters exchanged intense gunfire with the army, and detonated crude explosive devices targeting the invading army.
The soldiers also stormed several homes near Ibn Sina Hospital and the Zahra’ neighborhood before deploying sharpshooters on rooftops of invaded buildings.
Also, Israeli military (D-9) bulldozers destroyed streets, damaged property and infrastructure, and damaged the main water pipeline, which provides the Jenin refugee camp with water.
The soldiers also installed sandhills on streets leading to the refugee camp to isolate it from Jenin City and the surrounding area.
Local Palestinians gathered in front of the Jenin Governmental Hospital and marches through the streets carrying the bodies of the two slain men on their shoulders, while repeating slogans condemning the occupation’s crimes again the Palestinian people in Gaza and the West Bank.
