7 Killed in Latest Israeli Raids on West Bank

HeadlineJul 23, 2024

Israeli military raids on the West Bank have killed at least seven Palestinians, including a paramedic who died in a drone strike on the Tulkarm refugee camp.

Elsewhere, several international activists were hospitalized in the West Bank after they were assaulted by illegal Jewish settlers in the town of Qusra. Israeli soldiers who witnessed the attack reportedly fired warning shots but made no arrests. This comes just days after the International Court of Justice ruled Israel’s decadeslong occupation of the West Bank and East Jerusalem is unlawful.

Meanwhile, representatives from rival Palestinian factions, including Hamas and Fatah, have been meeting with Chinese mediators in Beijing, where earlier today they announced an interim national unity government responsible for the West Bank and Gaza.
