According to local sources, one young man was shot dead and seven others suffered bullet injuries during a ZOF operation intended to arrest a wanted citizen in Balata refugee camp, east of Nablus.

Red Crescent official Ahmed Jibril affirmed that 17-year-old Nader Rayan was shot dead by ZOF gunfire in Balata camp.

Local sources explained that the ZOF stormed Balata camp through al-Quds street and kidnaped a wanted citizen called Ammar Arafat after encircling his house.

They added that local youths clashed with Israeli soldiers during their arrest operation in the camp.

Five other young men were reportedly injured when the ZOF used live ammunition during the events. One of them was a 14-year-old teenager who was rushed in critical condition to Rafidia Hospital in Nablus.

Resistance fighters also opened fire at ZOF vehicles in al-Quds street upon their withdrawal from the camp.

About two hours later, another Palestinian young man was killed by ZOF gunfire in Qalandia refugee camp, northeast of Jerusalem, according to local media sources.

The Palestinian health ministry identified the victim as Alaa Shaham, adding that six other young men were also injured by live ammunition during clashes between the ZOF and local youths in the camp.

In Negev, a Palestinian young man was also killed by plain-clothes police officers at dawn in Rahat City.

The zionist police claimed their forces came under fire during an attempt to arrest suspects in Rahat, adding the slain young man was found in possession of a pistol and ammunition. (ILKHA)
