One person is killed, and another five are wounded, including two seriously, in the IDF drone strike in the West Bank’s Nur Shams camp in Tulkarem, according to the Palestinian Authority health ministry.
The slain Palestinian is identified by media reports as Saeed Jaber, a member of an armed group in the Tulkarem area.
Jaber is reportedly a relative of Muhammad Jaber, known as Abu Shuja’a, the commander of Palestinian Islamic Jihad’s local wing in Tulkarem.
