As per Al Jazeera correspondent from East Jerusalem, Israeli undercover special forces unit went into the Ibn Sina hospital in the West Jenin, dressed as doctors, nurses and even civilians. The unit was said to be comprised of Israeli police and army personnel.
According to the report, the three Palestinian men were killed while they were sleeping, and no attempt of arrest was found. One among the killed was undergoing treatment in the hospital for about three months, as he was injured by the Israeli army. According to Al Jazeera Arabic’s reporter, one among the killed was connected to the Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas.
Israeli border police said one of the killed was Hamas member, who, it said, planned an “attack inspired by the October 7th massacre”, said Reuters.
Responding to the killing, Hamas, the resistance group of Gaza, said the Israeli army’s “crimes will not go unanswered”. It said the killings are a “continuation of the occupation’s ongoing crimes against our people from Gaza to Jenin”, and highlighted that one among the killed men was injured and in bed when he was killed.
Hamas confirmed that one among the three was its member, and another was member of Jenin Battalion. The third was also a Palestinian fighter. The resistance group of Gaza said that Palestinian fighters “will not be intimidated by assassinations or weakened by the crimes of the cowardly enemy”, as quoted by Al Jazeera.
The three Palestinian men killed were identified as Mohammed and Basir Ghizawi, and Mohammed Jalamneh.
