TULKAREM, (PIC)
Five Palestinians were killed in the Israeli occupation forces’ (IOF) raid into Deir al-Ghusun town in Tulkarem, local sources said on Saturday.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health identified four of the martyrs as follows: Tamer Fuqaha, 32, Alaa Shreiteh, 45, Asal Badran, 42, Adnan Samara, 40.
The fifth martyr was not identified yet, as his decapitated body was taken to Thabet Thabet hospital waiting for his identification.
The IOF fired projectiles into a two-story house in the town of Deir al-Ghusun levelling it to the ground and killing all those inside after 15 hours of clashes and siege, claiming they were wanted resistance fighters.
The IOF arrested the house owner, Salama Badran, who is a former prisoner in Israeli jails, after he survived the house destruction.
National and Islamic forces in Tulkarem mourned the death of the five Palestinian citizens and declared a day of mourning and general strike tomorrow Sunday.
