Two Palestinian children are allegedly killed by Israeli soldiers in the Jenin refugee camp in the northern West Bank this evening, reports WAFA, an official Palestinian news outlet.
WAFA identifies the two as Mohammad Sari Alawneh and Islam Abdul-Aziz Nouh Majarmeh, both 14.
The outlet says that IDF soldiers opened fire on a group of civilians who had attempted to return to their homes in the Jenin camp to retrieve some of their belongings.
The IDF has been deployed to the Jenin camp since earlier this year, as part of a major counterterrorism offensive. Residents of the camp have since been displaced and have not been allowed to return.
There is no immediate comment from the IDF on the incident.
