Updated: A child succumbed to his wounds after being shot by the occupation forces in Qabatiya.

A child died Tuesday evening from wounds he sustained when he was shot by Israeli occupation forces during their raid on the town of Qabatiya, south of Jenin.

The Ministry of Health reported that the child Ibrahim Majed Ali Nasr (16 years old) died of his wounds from the occupation forces' bullets in Qabatiya.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society reported that child Nasser was shot in the chest by live Israeli occupation forces, and a young man was shot in the foot. Both were taken to the hospital.

Local sources told WAFA that Israeli occupation forces pursued the child, Nasr, and fired live bullets directly at him while he was on one of the town's streets, critically wounding him in the chest. He was then transferred to a hospital in Jenin, where doctors declared him dead from his injuries.

Israeli occupation forces stormed the town in several military vehicles from multiple entrances, positioned themselves near the town's roundabout, conducted foot patrols through its streets, launched a drone into the sky, and raided a home. No arrests were reported.

Local sources reported that clashes erupted between occupation soldiers and unarmed civilians, during which the soldiers fired live and rubber-coated metal bullets.

With the martyrdom of child Nasr, the number of martyrs in Jenin Governorate since the beginning of the aggression on the city and Jenin refugee camp on January 21st has risen to 43, with dozens more wounded and detained.

In parallel with the war of extermination being waged in the Gaza Strip, the Israeli occupation army and settlers have escalated their attacks in the West Bank, including Jerusalem, leading to the martyrdom of nearly 1,000 citizens since October 7, 2023, the injury of approximately 7,000, and the arrest of more than 17,000, according to official data.
