The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced that the number of martyrs in the West Bank has risen to 632 since October 7, following the martyrdom of two young men due to the aggression of the occupation on Balata camp this morning.

It stated in a brief statement on its official page on the social networking site "Facebook" on Thursday morning that among the martyrs are 147 children, 9 women, and 7 elderly individuals.

Two young men were martyred this morning, Thursday, and 7 others were injured, including a girl and a woman, as a result of shelling by a drone on a gathering of citizens in Balata camp east of Nablus.

The Ministry of Health reported the martyrdom of the two young men, Wael Bilal Masha (18 years old) and Ahmad Firas Sheikh Khalil (20 years old), and the injury of 7 others, one of whom is in critical condition.

The Palestinian Red Crescent stated that its teams were able to transport the martyr from Balata camp to a hospital in Nablus, noting that the occupation forces had detained the ambulance vehicle that was transporting the martyr.

The Red Crescent also indicated that its teams managed to transport an injury from live occupation bullets in the knee from Amman Street, pointing out that the occupation forces prevented the ambulance crews from being present on the mentioned street after transporting the injury.

Local sources reported that several injuries were transported to a hospital in the city of Nablus.

The sources indicated that the occupation forces, which stormed the eastern area of Nablus at midnight, obstructed the movement of ambulance vehicles transporting the injured.
