A child was killed this Wednesday evening by Israeli occupation forces in the town of Yamoun, west of Jenin.

Local sources said that the child, Rayan Tamer Hawshiya (15 years old), was martyred by Israeli occupation forces’ bullets after he was shot directly during the raid on the town. He was transferred to the Yamoun Medical Center as a martyr.

The occupation forces stormed Al-Yamoun this evening, deployed infantry units in the streets and on the rooftops of houses, and fired live ammunition at civilians.

With the martyrdom of Hawshiya, the number of martyrs in Jenin Governorate since the beginning of the aggression on the city and Jenin camp on January 21st has risen to 39.
