General

Two young Palestinians were killed and three others were injured on Tuesday by Israeli occupation forces’ live bullets in the village of Kafr Qud, west of Jenin in the occupied West Bank.

Palestine News and Information Agency (WAFA) said that an occupation army force cordoned off a house in the village of Kafr Qud and opened heavy gunfire towards it, killing two people and injuring three others. Palestinian Red Crescent paramedics who were allowed to access the house confirmed the death of two young men and the injury of three others who were inside the house.

For its part, the Palestine Red Crescent Society said that the occupation forces allowed its crews to reach the besieged area and informed them about the transfer of wounded and martyrs, before retreating and refusing to hand them over and forcing the ambulance crews to leave the area.

The number of martyrs in the occupied West Bank since Oct. 7 has risen to 615 citizens, including 144 children, in addition to more than 5,400 others injured.
