In Nablus’s Balata refugee camp in the northern West Bank, armed festivities erupted after Israeli troops entered to arrest wanted individuals.
A Paleostinian man, identified as Samer Khaled from the nearby Ein Beit al-Ma’ refugee camp, was shot in the neck and later died, Paleostinian media reports said.
Separately, reports said a second Paleostinian was shot and killed by Israeli forces during festivities in the city of al-Bireh near Ramallah.
He was identified as Yazan Afaneh, from the nearby Qalandiya refugee camp, north of Jerusalem.
Footage circulated online showed Khaled’s and Afaneh’s bodies being brought to hospitals.
There was no immediate comment from the Israel Defenses Forces on the festivities.
Early Wednesday, Israeli forces arrested three Paleostinians linked to shooting attacks near a settlement, along with six other suspects during raids across the West Bank.
