Israeli troops killed a Palestinian man during an occupied West Bank raid.

Violence surges in the West Bank with a high number of settler attacks and Palestinian casualties reported.

Gaza – (Special Correspondent / Web Desk) – According to Palestinian sources, a young Palestinian was killed after Israeli troops shot him during a raid on the Far’a refugee camp south of Tubas in the occupied West Bank.
Abdel Rahman Darawsha, 26, died from bullet wounds sustained after Israeli forces raided the camp and opened fire on Saturday night, according to the official Wafa news agency and the Palestinian Ministry of Health.
Darawsha was transported to Tubas Governmental Hospital by a Palestine Red Crescent ambulance and pronounced dead.
According to the Wafa report, Israeli soldiers invaded the camp on Saturday, placing army units at the gate and using live weapons.

Israeli forces also carried out raids near Jenin and Ramallah, and in the north of occupied East Jerusalem.

Separately, a group of about 50 Israeli settlers attacked a Bedouin community in the east of Jaba village near occupied East Jerusalem on Sunday, injuring seven Palestinians, said Wafa, adding that they also burned the community’s properties, causing significant damage.

Another Palestinian was wounded in an attack by Israeli settlers in the village of Umm al-Khair to the south of Hebron.

The attacks came just days after the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said October saw the highest monthly number of settler attacks in the occupied West Bank since the organisation began documenting the situation in 2006.

The UN office said there were more than 260 settler attacks last month in the occupied West Bank – an average of eight per day – resulting in injuries, property damage, or both.
