May 22, 2025

Ramallah [Palestine], May 22: The Israeli occupation military fired shots near a diplomatic delegation touring the city of Jenin in the north of the occupied West Bank today, the Palestinian Authority said today.
"The occupation forces opened heavy fire from inside the Jenin refugee camp to intimidate the diplomatic delegation that is conducting a field tour around the camp to witness the extent of the suffering endured by the residents of the area," it posted on X.
The authority, which has civil control of the Israeli-occupied West Bank but does not have power in the besieged Gaza Strip, expressed strong criticism of the Israeli action. There were no initial reports of casualties.
It was also not clear which countries were represented in the diplomatic delegation.
Media reports said that the delegation had been assessing the humanitarian situation in the city's refugee camp.
The Palestinian Foreign Ministry described the incident as a "blatant and serious violation of international law."
