Jenin – Israeli occupation forces shot and killed two Palestinian youths during a military raid into the northern West Bank city of Jenin, earlier on Thursday.
The Palestinian Health Ministry confirmed that Israeli forces killed two Palestinians: Sanad Abu Atiya (17) and Yazeed al-Saadi (23).
Local sources said large Israeli occupation forces raided Jenin city and its refugee camp earlier today in a daylight arrest operation.
The source said the forces entered the city’s refugee camp from several directions.
Confrontations erupted between the residents and the forces.
The forces shot live bullets and tear gas canisters at the residents.
This resulted in injuring 15 people, with three of them in a serious condition and one moderate to critical.
Abu Atiya and al-Saadi succumbed to their injuries when they arrived at the hospital.
Both of the two martyrs are from the Jenin refugee camp.
The Ministry of Health noted the forces shot tear gas canisters near Jenin government hospital.
The gas penetrated into the emergency room and this caused panic among the patients.
