West Bank, ALRAY - The Israeli occupation army has shot dead two young Palestinian men during its aggressive raid into Tulkarm in the northern occupied West Bank.

According to local sources, Israeli occupation forces opened fire at a vehicle near the entrance to Shufah town, southwest of Tulkarm, critically injuring two young men.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced that two young men succumbed to their serious wounds after being shot by Israeli occupation soldiers near Tulkarm.

The slain martyrs were identified as Abd al-Rahman Faris Atta, 23, and Huthaifa Mohammad Faris, 27, according to the Health Ministry.

The Israeli occupation army routinely conducts raids and incursions into the towns and villages of the occupied West Bank and Jerusalem.

The Israeli occupation army and colonial settlers have killed at least 195 Palestinian citizens in occupied the West Bank and Jerusalem and 37 more in the blockaded Gaza Strip so far this year.

This year is on track to become one of the bloodiest for the Palestinian people in the occupied West Bank. It has already surpassed 2022 as the deadliest year for the Palestinian people since the UN began recording in 2005
