AhlulBayt News Agency: Two Palestinian young men were shot martyred at dawn Saturday after the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) showered the vehicle they were aboard with bullets in southern Jenin.
According to the Red Crescent, two young men were fatally wounded in Jaba town when Israeli forces opened fire at a car carrying a number of citizens.
Other medical and local sources said that the shooting incident happened at the junction of Jaba town, adding that the wounded young men were pronounced dead at al-Razi Hospital in Jenin City.
The Palestinian health ministry, for its part, identified the victims as 24-year-old Izzuddin Hamamra and 23-year-old Amjad Khaliliya.
Hurrya News website, however, said that Hamamra and Khaliliya were killed following armed clashes with Israeli forces near Jaba town in southern Jenin.
Another young man also suffered a bullet injury in his leg after clashes broke out at the junction of Jaba with the IOF, which set up a makeshift checkpoint in the area.
In a statement, the Jenin Brigade said that its fighters carried out a shooting attack on Israeli soldiers and their vehicles during their campaign in Jaba town.
Earlier at dawn, 19-year-old Yazan al-Jabari, from Yamun town in Jenin, was proclaimed dead at Ibn Sina Hospital after he succumbed to a serious bullet injury he sustained in early January when the IOF opened fire at young men during clashes with them in Kafr Dan town in western Jenin.
At the time, two young men were also killed during the same clashes with the IOF, which stormed the town to demolish homes of two Palestinian martyrs.
