- Story Text: A funeral was held in the Israeli occupied West Bank city of Jenin on Friday (April 4) for 42-year-old Hussein Hardan who was killed by the Israeli army earlier in the morning, according to reports.
According to the official Palestinian news agency WAFA, the Palestinian Red Crescent reported that its team received the body of Hardan from Israeli forces at the Jalama military checkpoint.
With this incident, the number of Palestinians killed rose to 36 since Israel began its operation just a day after reaching a ceasefire agreement in Gaza following 15 months of war.
Israel launched the operation, saying it intended to take on Iranian-backed militant groups including Hamas and Islamic Jihad that have been firmly implanted in the refugee camps for decades, despite repeated Israeli attempts to root them out.
The operation in Jenin marked its 73 consecutive day on Friday, with widespread of destruction and demolition of roads and homes.
