According to the Hamas-affiliated Palestinian Health Ministry, Shabir was shot in the abdomen during clashes with Israeli troops east of the al-Bureij refugee camp and teenage al-Jahjuh was killed after he was hit in the neck by a bullet fired by Israeli troops. Abu Sharia and Yasin died from their wounds after being shot in separate incidents along the border fence.
