A 2.5-year-old toddler has succumbed to her wounds after being critically injured in an Israeli occupation army raid in Muthalath Ash-Shuhada village, south of the occupied West Bank city of Jenin, according to medical sources.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) reported that the 2.5-year-old female toddler Layla Mohammad Al-Khatib sustained a critical injury in the head from live ammunition shot by Israeli occupation forces, which raided the village.
PRCS added that its crews transferred the casualty to a hospital for treatment, where she succumbed to her wounds a few minutes later.
Earlier this evening, special Israeli occupying forces barged their way into the village and besieged a house.
The occupation forces deployed snipers around the house and ordered the occupants to come out via loudspeakers, triggering confrontations.
Israeli occupation forces have been launching a massive raid on the Jenin city and refugee camp for the fourth consecutive day, killing 14 Palestinians and forcing 1,800 Palestinian residents to leave the refugee camp.
This comes as the occupation forces have tightened military measures across the occupied West Bank hours after the release of 90 Palestinian prisoners as part of the Gaza ceasefire went into effect, dismembering and isolating cities and governorates one from the other using military gates, barriers, and concrete blocks.
The Israeli military measures are in parallel with ongoing attacks by Israeli colonists across the West Bank to terrorize Palestinians and displace them from their lands to seize them and build illegal Jewish colonies that separate Palestinian communities.
