ALBAWABA - The Israeli forces stormed several Cities across the West Bank, killing two and injuring three others in Nablus, while seven Palestinians were injured by Israeli fire following an overnight rampage through the refugee camp of Jenin. 

According to Ministry of Health figures, the death toll in the West Bank has risen to 262 since October 7th, following the killing of two Palestinians. Tensions have risen in the aftermath of the current Israeli aggression on Gaza, as the IDF has increased invasions on Palestinian territories. 

After a nearly nine-hour raid that resulted in the shooting and injuring of seven civilians, including a woman and a child, the detention of at least 18 civilians, and the destruction of infrastructure, Israeli forces withdrew from Jenin city and its camp Wednesday after midnight.

At noon, approximately 40 army vehicles stormed Jenin and its refugee camp, using smoke grenades, live bullets, and tear gas bombs, Israeli forces injured seven people, including a child and a woman. According to the Ministry of Health, the woman is now in critical condition.

The Israeli forces then conducted large-scale raids on residents' homes in the city and camp, converting several homes into military barracks. Fire also broke out in another house as a result of the Israeli attack, before civil crews were able to reach the houses and put out the fire, WAFA reported.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) in Jenin reported that the occupation forces beat up the ambulance crews in Jenin camp while they were attempting to transport the wounded from inside the camp.
