2024-08-07来源:和谐英语

RAMALLAH, Aug. 6 (Xinhua) -- Two Palestinian men were killed and three others injured by the Israeli forces' bullets near the northern West Bank city of Jenin, the Palestinian Health Ministry said Tuesday.

The Ramallah-based ministry identified the victims as 33-year-old Walid Jamal Muhammad Hussein and 33-year-old Khader Hussein Khader Abu Qatna, both killed in Kafr Qud, a town close to Jenin.

Meanwhile, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a statement that since Monday afternoon, the IDF, Israel Securities Authority, and Israel Border Police have been conducting a "counterterrorism operation" in Jenin and the surrounding areas.

The latest attack came after 10 Palestinians were killed during the Israeli army's operations in the West Bank from Monday evening to Tuesday morning.

Amid the ongoing Palestinian-Israeli conflict in the Gaza Strip, the West Bank has also been witnessing rising tensions between the Israeli army and Palestinians.
