Armed fighting in Jenin after killing, wounding of Palestinian youths

Our colleagues in Al Jazeera Arabic have shared verified footage from social media capturing the sounds of armed fighting between Israeli forces and Palestinian resistance in the occupied West Bank’s Jenin City.

It was reported earlier that a 19-year-old Palestinian died from gunshot wounds inflicted by Israeli forces in Jenin and that four other Palestinian youths were shot and injured in the town of Qabatiya, south of Jenin.

Israel bombs houses in Rafah, at least three killed: Report

At least three people were killed and several injured in early morning bombing raids by Israel on a two residential houses in Rafah city’s Khirbet al-Adas and al-Shaout neighbourhoods, the Palestinian state news agency Wafa reports.

Israeli forces also stormed the Nasser Medical Complex in the west of Khan Younis where they arrested staff and displaced people sheltering inside the compound, Wafa said.

Fierce clashes were underway in the vicinity of al-Shifa hospital in northern Gaza City, including shelling by Israeli artillery, with reports of people wounded.

On Tuesday evening, 12 people, including children, were reported killed in an Israeli airstrike on tented accommodation in the al-Mawasi area west of Khan Younis in southern Gaza.

Palestinian fighters continue to fire rockets, mortar shells at targets in Israel

The majority of “indirect fire” attacks on Israeli territory have been launched from northern and central Gaza since mid-January, according to the latest battlefield assessment from the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) and the Critical Threats Project (CTP).

The US-based think tanks said the continued ability of Hamas and other armed Palestinian groups to focus attacks on Israel more than five months into the full invasion and siege of Gaza indicated that Palestinians fighters were infiltrating back into the north of the enclave with plans to reassert control.

“Palestinian militias continued ability to launch attacks from the northern Gaza Strip is consistent with the infiltration of fighters into the area and Hamas’ intentions to reassert itself following Israeli withdrawals,” the latest ISW/CTP report states.

“Israeli forces have not expanded clearing operations to the entirety of the central Gaza Strip, where Hamas maintains four local battalions,” the monitors said.

On Monday, Palestinian Islamic Jihad launched rockets towards Israel’s Ashkelon and fighters with the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine fired mortars at an Israeli military site in the south of Israel, according to the report.



Since about 20% of ordnance doesn't explode, the IDF is providing the resistance with plenty materials to make more rockets and IEDs.
