Report: IDF increasingly believes soldier killed in Jenin was hit by friendly fire

Channel 12 reports the IDF increasingly thinks Sgt. First Class David Yehuda Yitzhak, the soldier killed yesterday in Jenin, was shot by an Israeli soldier accidentally.

The network’s Nir Dvori says commanders suspect a soldier mistakenly identified Yitzhak as the source of gunfire aimed at forces as they began to withdraw from the city, and fired at him.

The military probe is ongoing.
