Ma’moun Ahed Hreibat, a 32-year-old Palestinian, has died from his wounds following a ramming attack near Hebron, according to official sources. His death adds to the grim toll in the occupied West Bank, where 970 Palestinians have been killed since 7 October.

In a separate incident, two of the four individuals wounded in a shooting attack at the Reihan checkpoint in the northern West Bank are reported to be seriously injured, according to Sanad and Al Jazeera.

The situation in the northern West Bank continues to worsen as Israeli occupation bulldozers have begun demolishing residential buildings in the Nur Shams camp. This is part of a larger plan to demolish over 106 buildings in both the Tulkarm and Nur Shams camps.
