Ramallah:  A young man was killed and 9 Palestinians were wounded Saturday, by Israeli forces' bullets, after a large-scale storming of Jenin refugee camp in the occupied West Bank.

The Palestinian ministry of health said announced the death of a Palestinian young man of critical wounds in the neck area. It also announced that nine injuries were caused by live fire in the lower extremities, who were transferred to Jenin and Ibn Sina Hospitals for treatment.

Security sources earlier said that dozens of military vehicles stormed Jenin camp this morning, after undercover Special Forces units, known as the "Musta'ribeen", infiltrated the camp. The house of the freed prisoner, Saleh Abu Zina, was besieged, which led to the outbreak of violent confrontations, resulting in dozens of suffocation cases.

The sources pointed out that the occupation forces surrounded the house of the Abu Zina family, to arrest their son Muhammad, and when they did not find him, they arrested his brother Saleh.

These forces prevented press crews and ambulances from reaching the camp, to cover what was going on, amid intense flight of four Apache helicopters, extensive firing of live bullets, gas and smoke bombs, and snipers ascending the roofs of commercial buildings in the city center.
