near Jenin the previous night, the Palestinian Health Ministry said.

Jani Abu Jukha, the director of Jenin's Ibn Sina Hospital, said Alawna had
reached the hospital in critical condition and died of his wounds on
Sunday, according to Palestinian news agency Wafa.

The Israeli army has been conducting raid-and-arrest operations on a
near-daily basis in the occupied West Bank since March, which often lead to
the wounding or killing of Palestinians.

Earlier this week, Israeli forces shot dead a 25-year-old Palestinian man

during an overnight raid in Jenin.

Alawna's death raises the number of Palestinians killed in
the Jenin governorate this year to 28, including veteran journalist Shireen
Abu Akleh, <https://www.middleeasteye.net/topics/shireen-abu-akleh-killing>
who was shot dead by Israeli forces in May when she was covering an army
raid in the area.
Death toll

The National Assembly of the Families of the Martyrs of Palestine said in a
report on Sunday that the number of Palestinians killed by Israeli forces
this year up to 30 June had reached 77, including 15 minors.

The report said 14-year-old Mohammed Salah, from al-Khader town in
Bethlehem, was the youngest among the Palestinians killed this year.

The director of the assembly, Mohammed Sbeihat, said the oldest
Palestinians killed were Omar Abdel-Majeed Asaad, from Jaljia village in
Ramallah, and Suleiman al-Hathaleen, from Umm al-Khair village in Hebron,
both 80 years old.

Sbeihat said April was the deadliest month of the year so far, with 23
Palestinians killed by Israeli forces.
