Two young Palestinians were martyred and several others were injured in a drone strike by Israeli occupation forces on the Al-Far’a refugee camp, located south of Tubas in the occupied West Bank at dawn Wednesday.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society reported difficulties in reaching the casualties due to the camp’s blockade by Israeli occupation forces, which have been preventing ambulances from accessing the area and obstructing rescue operations.
The Israeli military had previously raided the camp with a large number of infantry soldiers, followed by additional military reinforcements including a bulldozer. Snipers were reportedly deployed extensively inside and around the camp, and the area was heavily patrolled by drones, Palestinian news agency (WAFA) reported.
The camp remains under siege with Israeli forces blocking the movement of Palestinians into and out of it. This comes as part of a wide-scale military offensive launched by the Israeli occupation authorities in several areas of the occupied W
est Bank.
