JENIN, November 5, 2024 (WAFA) – A cameraman Tuesday evening sustained an injury from Israeli army gunfire in the Qabatiya town, south of the occupied West Bank city of Jenin, according to WAFA correspondent.

She said that Israeli occupation forces shot Al-Araby TV cameraman Rabi Munir in the abdomen while the latter was covering a raid in the town.

She added that the nature of Munir’s injury could not be precisely known.

This came after the Israeli occupation forces intensified their military operations in various cities of the occupied West Bank on Tuesday, resulting in the killing of four Palestinians, with fierce armed clashes reported with invading Israeli forces.

As part of these operations, an Israeli occupation drone assassinated two Palestinian men near the Martyrs’ Triangle in Qabatiya, south of Jenin. The victims were identified as Muhammad and Shawqi  Asasousi.

WAFA reported earlier Tuesday that the military operation in Qabatiya has been underway for several hours with the Israeli occupation forces sending military reinforcement to the entrances of the town.

The Israeli offensive in the occupied West Bank since the start of the genocide on Gaza last year has claimed the lives of over 760 Palestinians, 18 of whom are women and 166 children, and over 6,500 recorded injuries, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health numbers.

Last September, Israeli media reported that Israel now considers the West Bank a battlefield, following days of escalated operations.

In addition to the casualties, significant damage has been inflicted on the infrastructure of cities like Jenin, Tulkarm, Nablus, and Tubas amongst others.
