Israeli media said that a soldier was killed and 17 others were injured during the occupation army’s storming of the city and Jenin camp in the West Bank last night.
During the night hours, violent clashes took place between Palestinian resistance fighters and the occupation forces in Jenin, and the resistance detonated explosive devices in Israeli military vehicles.
The Al-Qassam Brigades – the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) and the Al-Quds Brigades – the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement – (Jenin Brigade) announced that their fighters engaged in armed clashes with the occupation forces, where they were shot, according to a statement by the Al-Qassam and Al-Quds Brigades.
A circulating video showed the occupation forces transporting those injured in a bomb explosion by Israeli forces in the Marj Ibn Amer Plain, north of Jenin.
The Palestinian News Agency quoted security sources as saying that Israeli special forces arrested the two freed prisoners, Jamal Huwail and Jamal Zubeidi Abdul Ghani Abu Al-Haija, at the entrance to Jenin camp.

Sporadic incursions
In the early hours of dawn today, Thursday, the army carried out incursions into a number of towns in the governorates of Qalqilya (north), Bethlehem and Hebron (south), and Ramallah (centre), before withdrawing from them later, according to eyewitnesses.
Yesterday, the Israeli occupation forces stormed the town of Al-Issawiya, north of Jerusalem, and Tel Aviv Tribune’s correspondent reported that the occupation forces’ patrols fired sound bombs and gas bombs towards citizens and homes, and they spread in a number of the town’s streets.
South of Hebron, the Israeli occupation forces demolished 7 residential rooms, health units, and a room for the electricity generator, in the “Umm Al-Khair” village in Musafer Yatta.
On the other hand, the Palestinian News and Information Agency (Wafa) quoted eyewitnesses saying that settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque in groups, carried out provocative tours of its courtyards, and performed Talmudic rituals.
According to witnesses, the occupation police imposed restrictions on the entry of worshipers to Al-Aqsa, and tightened their military procedures at the gates of the Old City, which they turned into a military barracks, where hundreds of occupation police officers were deployed at close distances, especially at the gates of Al-Aqsa.
In conjunction with its devastating war on Gaza since October 7, the Israeli occupation army expanded its incursions and operations into the West Bank, leaving as of Wednesday 553 Palestinian martyrs, including 133 children, in addition to about 5,200 wounded, according to Ministry of Health data.
While that war, which enjoyed absolute American support, left more than 124,000 Palestinians martyred and wounded, most of them children and women, and more than 10,000 missing, amid massive destruction and famine that claimed the lives of dozens of children.
