A Palestinian has died of his injuries following a huge Israeli raid which killed five others in Jenin in the occupied West Bank on Monday, while another was killed in a separate raid near Bethlehem.
Amjad Abu Jaas, 48, was wounded after being shot by Israeli forces in the Jenin refugee camp and taken to a hospital in Nablus for treatment but was pronounced dead on Tuesday morning.
He was the father of Wassim Amjad Jaas, who was killed along with several others in the Jenin camp earlier this year.
A total of six people, including a child, have now died as a result of the Jenin camp raid, in which Israeli forces used helicopters to strike targets in the West Bank for the first time in over 20 years.
Elsewhere in the West Bank on Monday evening, 20-year-old Zakaria Mohammad al-Zaoul was killed by Israeli forces during clashes with Palestinian residents in the town of Husan, west of Bethlehem.
He was hit with a bullet to the head, the Palestinian health ministry said.
A second man was wounded with a bullet to the neck and had to undergo surgery.
Protests erupted in Husan following the Jenin raid. This led to a violent response from Israeli forces, local sources told °®Âþµºâ€™s Arabic-language sister site, Al-Araby Al-Jadeed.
The Palestinian health ministry says 170 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces and settlers in the occupied territories and the Gaza Strip since the start of this year.
