The occupation forces stormed the Askar camp hill area yesterday, and fired live bullets, flare bombs and tear gas, which led to the injury of the boy Madani with a live bullet in his chest, after which he was transferred by the Palestinian Red Crescent to “Rafidia” Hospital in the city of Nablus, where it was later announced that he had died of his wounds.
Two other Palestinians were also wounded when the IOF opened fire during a separate raid on the Khallet al-Amoud area east of Nablus.

The Palestinian Resistance has vowed to continue confronting the IOF’s incursions across the West Bank. In the early hours of Monday, the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades claimed responsibility for targeting the Israeli occupation troops with gunfire and a powerful explosive device during the Balata camp raid.
The Wafa Palestinian news agency reported that the IOF operation involved several military vehicles and an Israeli bulldozer, which wreaked havoc on the camp’s streets and infrastructure.
Elsewhere in the West Bank, the IOF carried out a series of violent raids. In Qalqilya, six Palestinians were detained, and another was assaulted during the IOF’s invasion of the town. Intense gunfire was also reported, with the occupation forces directing their fire at civilian vehicles.

The West Bank is witnessing a clear military escalation by the occupation, especially with the launch of the “Al-Aqsa Flood” on October 7, 2023, represented by storming Palestinian cities and camps, arresting Palestinians, and causing human and material losses, in an attempt to increase pressure on the Palestinians as part of the policy of collective punishment.
