Budrigannews.com – According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, an Israeli raid on the West Bank city of Jenin on Sunday resulted in the death of a 14-year-old boy. According to the ministry, Qusai Radwan Waked was shot in the abdomen.
Israeli and Palestinian authorities claimed that Jibril Zubeidi was the target of the raid, which resulted in his detention.
During the raid, “armed individuals fired at the forces who responded back with live fire… Additionally, suspects hurled explosive devices and rocks at the forces,” according to a joint statement from the Israel Security Agency, Border Police, and Israel Defense Forces.
The Israeli statement stated, “We are aware of the reports regarding a number of armed individuals who were injured during the exchange of fire.”
Sunday’s video from Jenin showed smoke rising from behind a multi-story building and what appeared to be at least seven Israeli military vehicles entering the city. During the raid, locals claimed that Israeli forces used a smoke bomb.
The Israelis stated that Zubeidi was involved in the brief seizure of the body of an Israeli Druze man who was killed in a car accident in the West Bank in November. He was also suspected of “terrorist activity against security forces and planning attacks.”
Gunmen demanded the return of the bodies of Palestinians who had been killed by Israelis, and they took the man’s body, Tiran Ferro, from a hospital in Jenin. The next day, the gunmen turned over the body to security personnel from the Palestinian Authority. According to the IDF, there were neither negotiations nor an exchange for Ferro’s remains.
According to the official Palestinian news agency WAFA, Zubeidi had previously spent 11 years behind bars in an Israeli facility. Dawoud, one of his brothers, was killed last year by Israeli forces, and Zakariya, another brother, is a Fatah official who is also in jail in Israel.
