RAMALLAH, Nov. 22 (Xinhua) -- Seven Palestinians were killed in Israeli raids in the northern West Bank on Wednesday, said the Palestinian health ministry.

Six of the victims were from the Tulkarm refugee camp, and one near the Qalqilya city, said the ministry.

Palestinian sources said the Israeli forces carried out a drone attack in the Tulkarm camp Wednesday morning, killing six Palestinians. The forces also stormed the camp with dozens of military vehicles and an armored bulldozer demolishing infrastructure and properties in the camp, said the sources.

Meanwhile, in the town of Azzun near Qalqilya, a Palestinian youth succumbed to his injuries from live bullets during confrontations with the Israeli army.

The Israeli raids on Wednesday bring the total death toll of Palestinians across the West Bank to 225 since Oct. 7, when the Hamas-Israel conflict broke out, the health ministry said.
