Also, the Quds News Network has reported that Palestinian resistance fighters exchanged fire with the invading soldiers in the refugee camp and around it for about three hours.
On Monday night, several army vehicles invaded Ya’bad town, southwest of the northern West Bank city of Jenin, and fired rubber-coated steel bullets, gas bombs, and concussion grenades at Palestinians protesting the invasion.
