Local reporters told WAFA that Sanad Salem al-Harbad, 27, a father of three, was shot and killed by an undercover Israeli police unit during an arrest campaign in the city.

Israeli police claimed the unit came under fire and it responded opening fire and killing one person. However, no one from the police unit was injured.
The Palestinian presidency condemned the daily Israeli occupation’s killing of Palestinians, which it described as extrajudicial executions, which resulted in the killing on Tuesday of two young Palestinians in Balata and Qalandia refugee camps in the West Bank, and a third in the Naqab in south Israel.
