Israeli Drone Attack: Israeli troops carried out an airstrike on the northern West Bank on Sunday. One Palestinian militant was killed and five others were injured in the attack. Palestinian health officials gave this information. According to officials, the attack took place in an urban refugee camp called Noor Shams.

Nur Shams is considered a stronghold of Palestinian militants and has been a frequent target of the Israeli army in recent days. The state-run Palestinian news agency Wafa said an Israeli drone fired three missiles and struck a house.

The dead commander had escaped from the previous attack

According to the news agency Wafa, Islamic Jihad identified the deceased as Saeed al-Jaber, one of its local commanders. Wafa said the deceased commander had escaped a previous Israeli drone attack on June 20.

At the same time, health officials said that the condition of two people injured in the Israeli drone attack is critical. Along with this, the Israeli army has also confirmed the drone attack on a house. The army said that the terrorists present inside the house, including Al-Jaber, were responsible for the recent attacks on Israeli targets.

So far 37,800 Palestinians have been killed in the attacks

The Palestinian Health Ministry says more than 500 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire in the West Bank since the start of the war. Most of them have been killed during Israeli raids and violent protests. The dead include Palestinians and passers-by killed in attacks by Jewish settlers.

The health ministry statement said the Israeli military launched an air and ground assault on Gaza in response to a Hamas attack on southern Israel on October 7, killing 1,200 people and taking 250 others hostage. More than 37,800 Palestinians have been killed in the assault, according to Gaza's health ministry, which does not distinguish between civilians and combatants in terms of the number of those killed.
