Occupied Jerusalem, August 25 (QNA) – A young Palestinian civilian succumbed this morning to injuries sustained from Israeli occupation forces’ (IOF) gunfire near the Jalameh military checkpoint, north of Jenin.
Local sources reported that the IOF had targeted and shot three young Palestinian civilians who were in a vehicle near the checkpoint earlier today. The sources added that the IOF prevented ambulances from reaching the scene and detained the three individuals from the vehicle.
Later, Palestinian security sources confirmed that one of the three young men had died from the injuries that the IOF had caused, while the condition of the other two remains unclear.
The IOF has murdered at least 642 Palestinian civilians in the West Bank since the beginning of the Israeli occupation’s genocide on the Gaza Strip in October 2023, including 147 children.
