1 Palestinian killed, 9 injured during IDF counterterror raid in northern West Bank
[IsraelTimes] The Paleostinian Authority health ministry says one person was killed and nine injured during an Israel Defense Forces raid on the Balata refugee camp in the northern West Bank.

The IDF says that during the "counterterrorism" operation, "snuffies placed explosives in the area to harm (military) soldiers, hurled explosives, Molotov cocktails and rocks, and shot fireworks at the forces."

"The forces fired toward the snuffies in order to remove the threat. Hits were identified," the IDF statement says.

The PA health ministry says an 18-year-old man, Muhammad Medhat Amin Amer, "was killed by bullets from the occupation in the Balata camp," adding that nine people were maimed, "four of whom are at death's door."

According to the Paleostinian Red Islamic Thingy, the raid began last night and triggered violent mostly peaceful festivities.

The official Paleostinian news agency Wafa reported that Israeli troops entered the camp from the Awarta checkpoint and "deployed snipers on the rooftops of surrounding buildings."

Since October 7, 2023, troops have arrested some 6,000 wanted Paleostinians across the West Bank, including more than 2,350 affiliated with Hamas

According to the Paleostinian Authority health ministry, more than 835 West Bank Paleostinians have been killed in that time. The IDF says the vast majority of them were button men killed in exchanges of fire, rioters who clashed with troops or snuffies carrying out attacks.

During the same period, 43 people, including Israeli security personnel, have been killed in terror attacks in Israel and the West Bank. Another six members of the security forces were killed in festivities with terror operatives in the West Bank.
