Abdullah Abu al-Teen, a doctor working at the Khalil Suleiman Governmental
Hospital, has died after being shot earlier on Friday while trying to treat
casualties during an Israeli
<https://www.middleeasteye.net/countries/israel> raid in Jenin in the
occupied West Bank.
Mateen Dabaya, 20, was also killed and five other Palestinians injured
during the raid on the Jenin refugee camp.
Sources told the official Palestinian news agency Wafa that Israeli special
forces had raided the camp, along with dozens of Israeli military vehicles,
during which they deployed live fire.
The Palestinian health ministry said Teen, who was married with three
children, was shot in the head by Israeli soldiers in front of his hospital.
It was initially reported that Teen, 43, had been killed, but he was later
resuscitated, before succumbing to his wounds.
Scores of Palestinians have been killed in recent months during near-daily
Israeli raids across the West Bank.
Two Palestinian teenagers were shot dead on Saturday during another raid in
Jenin, while a 12-year-old boy died on Monday from wounds sustained last
month, according to a health ministry toll.
Israeli forces are currently searching for attackers who shot dead two
soldiers in separate incidents over the past week.
One soldier was killed on Tuesday near Nablus, south of Jenin, while on
Saturday another was shot dead near an entrance to the Shuafat refugee camp
in Israeli-annexed East Jerusalem.
Residents of the camp have been trapped in the neighbourhood

for nearly a week, with some unable to leave to receive critical health
treatments and many basic supplies running low, as Israeli forces enforce a
strict blockade as part of its search for the shooter.
Around 140,000 Palestinians live in Shuafat, the only refugee camp within
Jerusalem’s municipal boundary.
Palestinians went on a day-long general strike earlier this week in the
city, in solidarity with Shuafat residents.
There have also been confrontations involving Israeli forces and
Palestinians across East Jerusalem.
