Five Palestinians were martyred Wednesday during the ongoing occupation aggression on the city of Tubas and the town of Tamun to the southeast in the West Bank.

Security sources told Palestinian News and Information Agency (WAFA) that five Palestinian youths were killed and that the occupation forces were holding their bodies. Four youths were killed in the town of Tamun during a bombing carried out by a drone, while another youth was killed in the morning hours after his house was surrounded.

The occupation forces have continued their storming of the city of Tubas and the town of Tamun since the early hours of the morning, amid ongoing confrontations and intensive flights of reconnaissance drones.

Since last night, 5 Palestinians have been martyred in Anata, Tubas, and Tamun, bringing the death toll in the West Bank to 629 since Oct. 7, 2023, including 146 children and 9 women.

On the other hand, Director of Palestinian Prisoner’s Society in Tubas Kamal Bani Odeh said that the occupation forces carried o
ut, at dawn, raids and searches that included more than ten homes in Tamun and arrested a young man to pressure his brother, the freed prisoner, to surrender himself, while two others were arrested after raiding their homes.

The cities, towns, and camps of the occupied West Bank and Jerusalem witness daily raids and incursions into villages and towns by the occupation forces and settlers, accompanied by confrontations, arrests, and the firing of live and rubber bullets and tear gas canisters at Palestinians. The pace of these campaigns has increased in conjunction with the unprecedented and ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip since Oct. 7.
