During the early hours of this morning, a violent confrontation unfolded as the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) conducted a raid on the city of Jenin.
The incident led to intense clashes between the IOF and Palestinian Resistance groups, who were steadfastly defending the city against the recurring acts of aggression perpetrated by the IOF.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health reported that four citizens, including a child, were killed, and a large number of citizens were injured, including one in critical condition during the occupation’s raid into the Al-Hadaf and Al-Jabriyat neighborhoods near Jenin camp.
The Jenin Brigade, a Palestinian Resistance group, announced that they targeted the IOF with locally-made explosive devices, causing significant damage to the IOF’s raiding vehicles. It is likely that the explosions also resulted in injuries among the occupation forces as they were fired upon following the blasts. Video evidence captured the Israeli raiding party vehicles being targeted by explosive devices.
