The Israeli police said that a female soldier from the Special Unit of the Border Guard was killed in the clashes that took place in Jenin in the West Bank at dawn on Sunday, while an Tel Aviv Tribune correspondent reported that a settler was killed by shooting at his car between Ramallah and Nablus at what is known as the “Oyoun al-Haramiyya Junction.”
Tel Aviv Tribune’s correspondent reported that 6 young Palestinians – including 4 brothers – were martyred in the bombing of an Israeli march at the Martyrs’ Triangle near the southern entrance to Jenin, following confirmations from Palestinian medical sources that a number of Palestinians were martyred and others were injured as a result of bombing from that march in Jenin.
With the martyrdom of the six young men, the number of martyrs in Jenin due to bullets and bombing of the occupation rose to 80 martyrs since the start of the war on the Gaza Strip on October 7 last year.
This comes after the occupation forces stormed the city of Jenin, and armed clashes immediately broke out between them and Palestinian resistance fighters in a number of areas of the city. The Israeli army announced that 4 soldiers were injured – including two who were seriously injured – as a result of the detonation of an explosive device that targeted them in Jenin.

For its part, the Jenin Brigade, affiliated with the Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement, said that it achieved direct casualties and inflicted losses on the occupation forces and their vehicles during its storming of the city and its camp, confirming that its fighters clashed with the occupation forces and fired a barrage of bullets and detonated explosive devices.
In Tulkarm Governorate, 3 Palestinians were injured during the occupation forces’ storming of the town of Zeita, north of the governorate, while the Palestinian Red Crescent announced that 4 Palestinians were injured by Israeli occupation forces’ bullets, and the injury of one of them was described as serious, during confrontations that broke out in the towns of Bala’a and Anabta, east of the governorate.
Local sources reported that the occupation forces stormed the neighborhoods and deployed there to arrest those they called wanted persons, and were stationed in the center of the town of Balaa. Confrontations broke out with Palestinians as they confronted the raid. The occupation forces destroyed and burned a commercial store and fired sound bombs at it before withdrawing.
Confrontations also broke out between Palestinian youths and the occupation forces in the village of Aqraba, southeast of Nablus, after the occupation forces raided the Old City and its surroundings in Nablus earlier. Violent clashes broke out between the occupation forces and Palestinian resistance fighters who tried to confront the raid.
In Hebron Governorate, the occupation forces stormed the city of Dura, the Al-Samoud Hill area in Masafer Yatta, and the town of Bani Naim, east of Hebron, and began raiding and searching civilian homes.
The occupation forces also stormed the city of Qalqilya in the northern West Bank, raided several neighborhoods in the city and arrested a number of young men, in light of their escalating campaign in the West Bank in conjunction with their ongoing aggression against the Gaza Strip for the 93rd day.
