Israeli drone kills Palestinian in West Bank city of Tulkarm: Wafa

An Israeli drone struck the West Bank city of Tulkarm, killing a Palestinian and injuring five others in the Nour Shams refugee camp. 

Palestinian news agency Wafa said the Palestine health ministry confirmed that the Israeli strike killed 24-year-old Saeed Izzat Jaber when the Israelis bombed his home in Nour Shams. 

Wafa said the Palestine Red Crescent sent ambulance crews to the area but were unable to enter Jaber's home because it caught on fire. 

Civil defence crews put out the fires and worked with residents to search for survivors trapped under the rubble. 

Earlier this month, Jaber survived an assassination attempt while he was in his vehicle at a petrol station near Nour Shams and an Israeli drone fired a missile in the area, Wafa said
