The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced Tuesday, February 14, 2023, the death of a Palestinian boy, who succumbed to injuries he sustained by the occupation forces (IOF), in the Al-Fara’a refugee camp, south of Tubas.

The ministry said, “The martyr was the 17-year-old Mahmoud Majid al-Aidi, who was shot in the head – by Israeli forces – and was subsequently transferred to the hospital in critical condition before the medical staff announced his death.”

According to local Palestinian sources, the Al-Fara’a camp witnessed violent confrontations between IOF and the Palestinian citizens at dawn today.

They confirmed that the occupation forces failed to detain one of the Palestinian they pursued during their raid into the camp.

Since the beginning of this year, the number of Palestinians killed by the ISraeli occupation forces has risen to 49, including children and a woman.
