Israeli Forces Kill One, Injure 16 Palestinians In West Bank Raid

Israeli Forces Kill One, Injure 16 Palestinians In West Bank

Israeli forces on Tuesday killed a Palestinian and wounded 16 others during a raid in the occupied West Bank.

The Palestinian Health Ministry said; "The outcome of the Israeli aggression on Jenin at dawn today: a 29-year-old martyr and 16 wounded with bullets and shrapnel were admitted to hospitals."

Palestine's official news agency Wafa identified the dead man as Mohammed Musa Mohammed Sabaaneh.

On its part, the Israeli army said it entered Jenin overnight in order to demolish the residence of the perpetrator of a deadly shooting attack in Tel Aviv in April.

Around 100 Palestinians have been killed in Israel's campaign of Palestine, the Palestinian Health Ministry says, including militants, civilians and people taking part in clashes with Israeli forces.

Human rights activists say Israel's policy of demolishing the homes of suspected attackers in Palestine amounts to collective punishment.

This is as it can render non-combatants, including children, homeless. But Israel says the practice is effective in deterring some Palestinians from carrying out attacks.

Israel has occupied the West Bank since 1967, when it captured the territory from Jordan.
