Israeli occupation forces (IOF) killed Sunday, March 12, three Palestinian youths during their raid near the city of Nablus in the occupied West Bank.

Israeli media reported that the occupation forces opened fire at Palestinian freedom fighters at the intersection of the town of Jit, near Nablus, in the northern West Bank, after an Israeli military force was subjected to gunfire, according to the occupation’s allegations.

A spokesman for the Israeli occupation army said that a group of gunmen opened fire on Israeli soldiers from the “Seret Golani” unit, while they were near an Israeli military point at an intersection near the town of Jit in the northern West Bank.

Soldiers from the “Seret Golani” unit opened fire at 3 Palestinians and detained another one.

These Palestinian resistance operations come in light of the escalation of the Israeli occupation’s crimes against the Palestinian people, disregarding all international laws and positions.
