The Israeli army killed six Palestinians in Nablus and Jenin early Sunday in the occupied West Bank, the Palestinian Ministry of Health said, AFP reported.
The ministry said the army killed a 25-year-old doctor early Sunday morning outside his home near Jenin, a stronghold of Palestinian armed groups in the north of the territory.
AFP added that another Palestinian was killed in al-Bireh, near Ramallah, while four others were killed by Israeli army fire in Jenin, during an incursion by a large number of armored vehicles into the city, which was recently the scene of the deadliest Israeli attack on the West Bank in almost 20 years.
AFP quoted several witnesses as saying that the Israeli army was surrounding Jenin's public hospital and the Ibn Sina clinic, and that soldiers were checking ambulances. The West Bank region has seen an increase in violence since Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel on October 7.
Israel then responded with a bombing and ground campaign in Gaza, killing over 15,000 people, including children, according to the Hamas government.
According to the Palestinian Authority's Ministry of Health, around 230 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli settlers and soldiers in the West Bank.
The development comes amid a four-day temporary ceasefire between Israel and Hamas after both sides agreed to release prisoners. Hamas has so far released 42 of the 50 hostages promised in exchange for 150 Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails.
The deal was on the verge of collapse as Hamas demanded more aid in Gaza. The situation was managed by Qatar and Egypt leading to the resumption of the exchange of people by both sides.
Meanwhile, on the second day of the ceasefire, around 200 trucks carrying humanitarian aid, including food and medical supplies, were sent to Gaza through the Rafah crossing.
