Al Jazeera  

Mustafa al-Kastoni, a commander of Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, was killed after Israeli forces besieged and fired at his house. Jenin, occupied West Bank – A commander of a Palestinian armed group has been killed by Israeli forces and his older brother arrested in an early morning raid, the Palestinian health ministry said. “He screamed again that he would surrender, and then we heard bullets being fired.” Muhammad Ajawi, who works at the Noor Bakery close to the al-Kastoni house in Jenin’s old city, said he and nine other workers were forced out of the bakery at gunpoint. They made us stand by the bakery’s entrance.” Ajawi said that the soldiers besieged the house but did not call on anyone to surrender, instead firing “randomly”. In a statement, the Jenin Battalion for the Islamic Jihad’s armed wing al-Quds Brigades said Israeli forces sent in reinforcements after its resistance fighters targeted them with bullets and explosives.
