Elsewhere in Jenin, a general strike across the governorate has been announced to mourn three men who were martyred earlier on Thursday, with schools, businesses and stores shut.
At dawn on Thursday, Atta Shalabi, 46, Tarek al-Damaj, 29 and Sedki Zakarneh, 26, were martyred during fierce clashes with Israeli occupation forces who raided the city of Jenin and its camp.
Zakarneh and al-Damaj were from the Jenin refugee camp, while Shalabi was from the town of Qabatya on the southern outskirts of Jenin.

Local media reported that Israeli forces also shot at Palestinian Red Crescent ambulances during Thursday’s Jenin raid.
Videos shared online showed the aftermath of their targeting, with several bullet holes showing on the windshield and inside the ambulance.
Tensions have been high across the West Bank in the latest weeks, with occupation forces staging brutal raids across the Palestinians cities and towns on nearly daily basis.
By the latest four martyrs, number of Palestinians killed by Israeli fire reached 221, including 165 in the West Bank and 52 in Gaza strip, Palestinian media reported on Friday.
