A 32-year-old Palestinian man was killed by gunshot wounds to the head, chest and abdomen, during an Israeli attack on Jenin on Thursday, Palestine's ministry of health said.
A woman working as a health support staff member was wounded by gunshots to the chest and abdomen,
The ministry of health named the man as Mostafa Al Kastoni. Militant group Jenin Brigades claimed Al Kastoni as one of its fighters and began funeral processions on Thursday afternoon.
One unnamed eyewitness told local Palestinian media that Israeli forces "blew up a building without warning".
Speaking to The National, a local delivery driver said Israeli forces used a "shoulder-fired missile "to target a residential home – but the bakery was "in the way".
Palestinian state news agency Wafa said Israeli forces "blew up Al Kastoni's home and kidnapped two other Palestinians".
Jenin has been subject to several army raids in recent weeks, including one this month in which soldiers killed three Palestinians from the camp who were in their vehicles at the time, and another two-day raid in July when 12 people, including children, were killed and 140 others were injured.
The UN says at least 196 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire since January, including 40 children.

What is Reform?
Reform is a right-wing, populist party led by Nigel Farage, a former MEP who won a seat in the House of Commons last year at his eighth attempt and a prominent figure in the campaign for the UK to leave the European Union.
It was founded in 2018 and originally called the Brexit Party.
Many of its members previously belonged to UKIP or the mainstream Conservatives.
After Brexit took place, the party focused on the reformation of British democracy.
Former Tory deputy chairman Lee Anderson became its first MP after defecting in March 2024.
The party gained support from Elon Musk, and had hoped the tech billionaire would make a £100m donation. However, Mr Musk changed his mind and called for Mr Farage to step down as leader in a row involving the US tycoon's support for far-right figurehead Tommy Robinson who is in prison for contempt of court.
