They were both transferred to Martyr D. Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital in Tulkarm.
Israeli forces also stormed the Ezbet al-Jarad neighbourhood, east of Tulkarm city, and broke into a house there, firing multiple sound bombs and violently ransacking the building before interrogating the residents.
Dozens of Palestinians suffered respiratory problems due to inhalation of tear gas fired by Israeli forces during raids on Sa’ir town, located eight kilometres northeast of al-Khalil, and the al-Fawwar refugee camp.
