According to *Al Mayadeen's *correspondent, Abu Shujaa was killed alongside
four of his companions after Israeli occupation forces surrounded the
building they were in.

The Israeli occupation forces launched a large-scale aggression against the
camp on Wednesday evening, as part of the intensive aggression against the
West Bank, the largest since 2002.

Deploying dozens of military vehicles and bulldozers, the Israeli
occupation commenced extensive demolition operations in the streets and
infrastructure of the camp.

According to Israeli media, the occupation forces besieged several
Resistance fighters at 4 am, including Abu Shujaa, inside a building in Nur
Shams.

Confrontations broke out, during which the occupation forces fired an
Energia rocket at the building, however, confrontations continued.

By the end of the armed confrontation, Abu Shujaa and four others with him
were martyred.
Who was Abu Shujaa?

Abu Shujaa had previously stated in an exclusive interview with *Al
Mayadeen *earlier this month. "If the enemy assassinates me, we will
continue. The struggle does not end with one person, there are generations
that rise to defend our rights, and the biggest indicator is the martyrdom
of a Palestinian and more in each home in Tulkarm, and the Resistance
continues."

Regarding the multiple pursuits by the Israeli occupation forces, Abu
Shujaa confirmed that the enemy failed to assassinate him three or four
times

despite specific operations targeting him.

The commander mentioned that during one attempt to kill him, "Israel"
invaded Tulkarem for 55 continuous hours, asserting that "Israel" and its
occupation army are "weaker than a spider's web, given their substantial
losses."

However, he added, "the enemy has always been like this and never
acknowledges it."
West Bank wide-scale aggression continues

As of now, at least 14 martyrs have been reported due to the aggression
against the West Bank. *Al Mayadeen*’s correspondent in the West Bank
reported that a young man was martyred and another was injured by the Israeli
occupation forces' gunfire in the Tulkarm camp
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/resistance-factions-call-for-general-mobilization-in-west-ba>,
raising the total number of martyrs in the Israeli aggression against the
West Bank to 14, including those from Tubas, Tulkarm, and Jenin.

Our correspondent also reported that the Israeli occupying forces arrested
Bayram Qasas on the outskirts of Tulkarm camp before withdrawing from the
camp's vicinity and the city, except for the Nur Shams camp.

Additionally, the occupying forces withdrew from the Al-Far'a camp in Tubas
after arresting several Palestinians and brought in more reinforcements to
Jenin, closing the city’s entrances.
