A young man was killed on Wednesday evening, after being shot by the Israeli occupation forces in the town of Qaffin, north of Tulkarm.

According to local sources, the young man Ahmed Mahmoud Khaled Amarneh (25 years old) was killed by the occupation forces after besieging his house in Jabal Amarneh in the town.

The occupation forces surrounded the house where the young man was staying for about 3 hours, while firing bullets and "Energa" shells at him, and detained his body before withdrawing from the town.

The occupation forces are still present in the town of Qaffin, while the sounds of explosions and gunfire can be heard in its airspace.

With the death of Amarneh, the number of dead in Tulkarm since the beginning of the ongoing aggression on it since dawn on Tuesday, has risen to 9 citizens, in addition to 19 others being injured.
