NABLUS, Palestine (AA) - Seven Palestinians were injured on Thursday by Israeli army fire in the West Bank city of Nablus, according to the Health Ministry.
A ministry statement said its medics treated seven people injured by fire from Israeli forces.
Meanwhile, the official Palestine TV said that the Israeli army detained four Palestinians during its military operation in the old town of Nablus.
Earlier Thursday, Israeli forces pushed into Nablus from several entrances amid gunfire, witnesses said.
Israeli forces have repeatedly carried out raids into Nablus in search of members of an armed group known as the Lions’ Den, which emerged in the occupied West Bank last year.
Israel blames the Lions’ Den group for attacks on Israeli targets, including the death of an Israeli soldier in October last year.
Earlier Thursday, a Palestinian was killed by Israeli army fire during a military raid in the Balata refugee camp, north of East Jerusalem.
