Palestinian Red Crescent sources reported that a 65-year-old man was injured by live bullets in the back and was taken to the hospital.

Local sources said that special forces from the occupation army stormed the camp, followed by forces reinforced with a number of patrols and armored vehicles, and deployed in several neighborhoods.

The same sources added that violent clashes erupted inside the camp's neighborhoods, during which the occupation forces fired live bullets, gas and sound bombs, which led to the elderly man being injured by live bullets.
