The dead, “a non-commissioned officer on combat duty”died from shots in the context of armed confrontations in the Jenin refugee campthe Israeli army said in a statement.
His death occurred on Tuesday night when Israeli troops began to withdraw from the city after almost 48 hours of incessant crashes that caused great devastation in the city and also left more than one hundreds of Palestinians injuredamong which there are twenty in serious condition.
Israel attacked the city of Jenin in a large-scale offensive that included an operation involving a thousand soldiers and air strikes with drones, something unprecedented since the Second Intifada (2000-2005), in what is being its largest military operation in west bank since then.
The start of the withdrawal of Israeli troops tonight caused some families among the more than 3,000 people who fled the camp on Monday night because of the fighting began to return, although later reports of clashes with Israel continued.
The intensity of the fighting began to wane towards Monday night, as Israeli troops met with less and less resistance among the militants of the Jenin Brigadethe armed group against which the troops have directed their attacks these days, although residents of Jenin or health groups ensure that the civilian population has also been widely threatened and attacked.
The operation left a trail of devastation in the countryside, without water or light, forcing more than 3,000 people of the nearly 20,000 residents to leave their homes to flee the violence.
This 2023 is being the deadliest year of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in decades. In so far this year 156 Palestinians and 26 Israelis have died, including today’s soldier.
