July 06, 2022

Israeli occupation forces "IOF" critically injured a Palestinian youth, who later succumbed to wounds this early morning in confrontations during their storming of Jaba' town south of Jenin in the occupied West Bank.

Palestinian officials confirmed the martyrdom of Rafiq Riyad Ghannam, 20, who succumbed to his injuries during confrontations with the occupation forces at dawn today in the town of Jaba', south of Jenin.

Ghannam's relatives said that Israeli occupation forces summarily executed him, in cold blood, in front of his house, and then they abducted him and put him in a black bag before he was pronounced dead.

Ghannam is the second Palestinian martyred in the town of Jaba' within the past three days and the twenty-ninth one in Jenin since the start of 2022.
