Children, disabled person among those killed by Israel onslaught in West Bank

The UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) reports that the 20 Palestinians killed during the occupied West Bank incursion include a person with disabilities and several children, though the exact number of children was not specified.

Palestinian health authorities also stated that a Palestinian doctor and two medics, who were treating patients in Jenin, were injured by Israeli fire.

Officials from the UN and its partner organizations are planning to visit affected areas in the occupied West Bank over the weekend to assess the damage to homes and infrastructure.

"They stand ready to provide a response based on what people need most," said the UN humanitarian office
