Friday 27-January-2017

Three Palestinian youths sustained wounds at dawn Friday in violent clashes with the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) in the West Bank province of Jenin.

Reporting from the scene a PIC news correspondent said three youngsters were rushed to a hospital so as to be urgently treated for the moderate wounds sustained in confrontations rocking the Jenin refugee camp.

Tension flared up in the area shortly after the IOF rolled into the camp and cracked down on Palestinian protesters sparking violence.

The anti-occupation protesters responded by hurling stones Molotov cocktails and homemade bombs at the occupation troops.

Sounds of heavy gunfire were detected in the area all the way through the assault.

On Thursday an Israeli soldier was injured in similar clashes that burst out in the area and was transferred to hospital for treatment.
