A Palestinian teenager was martyred and 13 others, mostly children, were injured in Israeli aerial and gunfire attacks on citizens in Balata refugee camp in Nablus, north of the occupied West Bank, on Saturday afternoon.
A reporter for the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) said that an Israeli drone bombed a gathering of citizens, mostly children, in Balata camp, injuring several of them, adding that one of them was pronounced dead later.
The slain teenager was identified as 17-year-old Luay Misha. Two of the wounded citizens are reportedly in serious condition, according to the Palestinian health ministry.
One of the citizens suffered bullet injuries in the camp and was evacuated by the Red Crescent to a local hospital.
The Red Crescent also said that one of its volunteer paramedics was injured in an Israeli attack as he was working on evacuating wounded citizens in the camp.
A large number of Israeli troops and vehicles had stormed Balata camp, amid intensive gunfire.
Local residents reported hearing sounds of explosions during the Israeli raid, adding that armed clashes took place between resistance fighters and Israeli soldiers in the camp.
