RAMALLAH- (AA) – Israeli soldiers killed a young man in his 20s during an overnight incursion into a village in the West Bank, according to Palestinian media.
The official news agency Wafa reported that “a twenty-seven-year-old Palestinian was killed overnight after being shot by Israeli forces’ live fire during confrontations in the village of Deir Abu Deif, northeast of Jenin.”
Israeli forces stormed the village and sealed off its entrances, provoking residents and sparking confrontations, the agency said.
During the confrontations, Israeli soldiers fired live ammunition at residents, seriously injuring Qassam Ahmad Yasin, who died from his injuries shortly after, the news agency said.
According to the Palestinian Health Ministry, at least 373 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces in the West Bank since October 7.
