The Health Ministry identified the slain child as Mahmoud Mohammad Sammoudi, 12, from Al-Yamoun town, west of Jenin.
The three Palestinians killed on the day of the invasions of Jenin and its refugee camp were identified as Mohammad Hisham Abu Na’sa, 25, Abdul-Rahman Fathi Khazem, 27, Ahmad Nathmi Alawna, 24, and Mohammad Mahmoud Barahma, 30.
On the day of the Israeli invasion, the soldiers injured forty-four Palestinians, including several young men and children, who suffered life-threatening wounds.
The child’s death brings the number of Palestinians killed by Israeli fire since the beginning of this year to 165.

Editor’s note: Thanks to the Israel lobby, American taxpayers give Israel over $10 million of their tax money per day, while another $10 million per day is expended on projects because they benefit Israel. Many people say it’s time for this to end.
