The Israeli military shot and killed a Palestinian in the Faraa refugee camp in the West Bank. This was reported by the Palestinian Ministry of Health on Wednesday.


Meanwhile, WAFA news agency reported that the Israeli military stormed the camp and carried out a series of searches in the homes of Palestinians. This led to clashes in which firearms, stun grenades and tear gas were used. According to the agency, Israeli security forces also arrested two Palestinians. Sky News Arabia, referring to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, reported that 16 Palestinians were wounded as a result of the clashes.


Israeli security forces have been conducting counterterrorism operations in the West Bank since early April, resulting in the deaths of 20 people, in response to a series of terrorist attacks in Israeli cities. On Monday, the Palestinian Health Ministry reported that the Israeli military shot and killed a Palestinian man in the town of Qabatiya, south of Jenin. On Tuesday, one Palestinian was reported dead and 16 others wounded in clashes with Israeli security forces in Jenin.
