Israeli forces opened fire on a Palestinian vehicle in al-Fawwara area in Jaba town in Jenin, killing its three occupants, the state news agency Wafa reported.

The deaths came two days after six Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces during a raid in Jenin.

The Israeli army frequently carries out raids in Palestinian towns in the West Bank to arrest what the military calls “wanted” Palestinians.
