The Palestinian Authority Health Ministry names the six people killed during the IDF raid in Jenin, including a man accused of killing two Israelis last week.

According to the ministry, the fatalities include Muhammad Wael Ghazawi, 26, Majd Muhammed Azmi Husseiniyeh, 26, Tariq Ziad Mustafa Natour, 27, Ziad Amin Zaraini, 29, Abdel Fattah Hussein Kharousha, 49, and Mutasim Nasser Sabbagh, 22.

Israeli officials say Kharousha is the Palestinian terrorist who carried out the attack in Huwara last week that killed two Israeli brothers.

According to images shared by Palestinian media, Kharousha is apparently affiliated with the Hamas terror group.
