The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced – late Friday – the death of 4 young men by the Israeli occupation bullets in Nablus and Tulkarm, in the northern West Bank.
The ministry said that it was informed of the Palestinian Civil Affairs Authority (contact with the Israeli side), “with the death of 3 young men by the occupation bullets in Nour Shams camp on Wednesday.”
She added that “the martyrs are Jihad Mahmoud Hassan Masharqa, Khaled Mustafa Sharif Amer, Muhammad Ghassan Abu Abed,” noting that the Israeli occupation army “is still holding their bodies.”
With the martyrdom of the three young men, the number of martyrs of Tulkarm increases during the continuous aggression against the city and its camps to 11 martyrs, including two women, one of whom is pregnant in the eighth month, and a child (7 years) from the town of Kafr al -Labad.
In Nablus, a young man was shot dead by the Israeli occupation forces while storming the eastern region of the city.
The Ministry of Health reported that the 19 -year -old young man, Adel Bashkar, was shot by the occupation in Askar refugee camp, east of Nablus.
Medical sources stated that the martyr “Bashkar was wounded by the Israeli occupation bullets in the Askar camp, and he was transferred to the hospital, where he was described as a serious injury, before he was raised as a result of his injury.
An ongoing aggression
Meanwhile, the occupation army strengthened its forces in the city of Tulkarm and its camp in the northern occupied West Bank, on Friday, coinciding with its ongoing aggression there since January 27 last.
Eyewitnesses stated that several Israeli military bulldozers were seen storming the city from the side of the military “Tsanouz” military checkpoint, located at its western entrance, and headed towards the Tulkarm and Nour Shams camps.
The occupation continues its aggression in the camps of Jenin, Tulkarm and Nour Shams in the northern West Bank, amid hearing of exchanges of fire and bombings from time to time.
The Israeli aggression left widespread destruction in property, infrastructure, streets and homes, while dozens of buildings turned into military barracks after their people were expelled from them.
The continuous aggression also resulted in the displacement of thousands of Palestinians from Jenin, Tulkarm and Tubas, north of the occupied West Bank.
On January 21, the occupation army began a military aggression on the northern West Bank, which included the cities and camps of Jenin, Tubas and Tulkarm, and killed 55 Palestinians until Friday evening, according to official Palestinian data.
Since the start of the genocide in the Gaza Strip, the occupation and the settlers expanded their aggression on the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, which resulted in the death of at least 916 Palestinians, the injury of about 7 thousand, and the arrest of 14 thousand and 500 others, according to official Palestinian data.
With American support, Israel committed between 7 October 2023 and January 19, 2025, a group extermination in Gaza that left about 160,000 Palestinian martyrs and wounded, most of them children and women, and more than 14,000 missing.
