Tulkarm: The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced today that a woman was martyred after being shot by Israeli occupation forces east of Tulkarm in West Bank.

According to Qatar News Agency, in a statement, the ministry confirmed that Rahaf Fuad Al Ashqar, aged 21, had succumbed to her injuries after being shot by occupation forces during their assault on the Nur Shams refugee camp.

Earlier today, an expectant Palestinian mother and her unborn child were also killed by Israeli gunfire, while her husband was critically injured.

With the martyrdom of Rahaf Al Ashqar, the number of Palestinians killed in Tulkarm and its refugee camp has risen to seven since the ongoing Israeli aggression began 14 days ago.

Israeli forces have been storming Tulkarm and its refugee camp for the past two weeks in an unprecedented assault, accompanied by military bulldozers and aerial surveillance by drones and warplanes.
