Israeli forces have killed three Palestinian youths in separate attacks across the occupied West Bank.

According to the official Palestinian Wafa news agency, the first victim was identified by the Palestinian Health Ministry as 20-year-old Aziz Abdulrahim Ekhlail.

The young man died during confrontations between Israeli forces and Palestinians in the town of Beit Ummar, north of the city of al-Khalil, also known as Hebron, in southern West Bank.

Medical sources said Ekhlail died of a critical wound he received from a shot fired by the regime's troops at his abdomen.

The ministry subsequently announced the death of another youth, whom it identified as 25-year-old Salem Nasser Hajar.

Hajar died of a headshot he had received earlier during the day while he was walking with his brother along the separation wall built by the Israeli regime west of the town of Deir al-Ghusun, north of Tulkarm. His brother was arrested by the regime's forces.

Later during the day, Palestinian security sources reported the death of Atallah Ziad Badaha, 16, at the hands of Israeli troops, who had raided the Deir Ammar refugee camp, northwest of the city of Ramallah. 

The raid prompted clashes between the Israeli occupation forces and local Palestinians, during which the teenager was shot in the chest. Two more Palestinian youths were also injured.

The trio's martyrdom brings to 291, the number of Palestinians who have been killed throughout the West Bank since October 7, when the Israeli regime started ramping up its violent raids across the occupied territory.

The regime started a genocidal war against the Gaza Strip on that day, which has so far claimed the lives of about 19,000 Palestinians, most of them women and children.
