🚨 Breaking: @AJArabic Al Jazeera team and other journalists are surrounded by Israeli forces in Jenin. They’re unable to leave the Cinema Hotel despite clearly dressed in press gear. They were fired on with live bullets while covering the latest in occupied West Bank.
One hotel staff member is injured where dozens of journalists have been staying to cover Israel’s offensive on Jenin that started on Tuesday. 11 people have been killed since, including a 15-year-old earlier.
Earlier, Israeli defense minister Yoav Gallant allowed illegal settlers to go back to settlements in the north of occupied West Bank where they had been disallowed entry since the 2005 disengagement. Israeli settlement expansion is a primary goal of the far-right government.
Israel forces have now withdrawn. While this has been unfolding - Israel has bombed the Fatima Al-Zahra school and mosque building, where displaced Palestinians were sheltering in central Gaza city. Death toll is rising, at least 9 people are dead including 5 children.
