JENIN (PIC)– Large numbers of IOF troops backed by tens of military vehicles have encircled and stormed the Palestinian refugee camp of Jenin Saturday night and shot dead a Palestinian girl that raises death toll in the city to five since Saturday morning.
The minor was identified as 17-year-old Bushra Burgheesh who according to her family was studying her lessons in preparation for her exams on Sunday before the IOF bullets “ended her life and dreams”.
Brother of the victim Rahman Bargheesh is an Islamic Jihad activist and listed on the IOF wanted operatives.
Before dawn Saturday IOF troops and special units assassinated four Palestinian activists in the city.
Leaders of the Palestinian resistance factions in the city vowed to resist the Israeli occupation government to the “last drop of their blood” and urged PA chief Mahmoud Abbas to terminate his “futile” bimonthly meetings with Israeli premier Ehud Olmert.
Few months ago Palestinian resistance factions heeded Abbas’ request to stop retaliating to IOF troops’ aggressions and gave Israel a “temporary truce” provided that the IOF troops halt military aggressions on the Palestinian people in Gaza Strip and the West Bank but Israel never relaxed its atrocities and continued killing and wounding innocent Palestinians.
Meanwhile IOA notified Palestinian citizens in the Barta’a village southwest of Jenin city of its intention to demolish a clinic a school and a number of homes in the village in view of its proximity to the racist separation wall.
Locals reported that IOF soldiers handed the notifications to the director of the clinic headmaster of the school and owners of 12 houses ordering them to evacuate in preparation for the demolition.
The clinic has been built only a few months ago the locals said and further pointed out that the school was the only one in that part of the village where more than a 100 students learn in the first and second elementary classes. If the school were to be destroyed then the little children would have to walk 10 kilometers to reach the nearest other school.
