A 44-year-old Palestinian man has been shot and killed during an Israeli military raid in Jericho city, the first death in a night of shootings that saw five other Palestinians wounded by Israeli bullets in the occupied West Bank, Al Jazeera reports.

Wafa identified the deceased as Shadia Issa Galaita, a father of three and brother of longtime Palestinian prisoner Fadi Galaita who has been imprisoned by Israel for 24 years.

Earlier, two people were shot and injured in an Israeli military raid on the Aqbat Jabr and Ein el-Sultan refugee camps, located to the north and south of Jericho.

Three people were also shot on Monday evening when Israeli forces opened fire on cars on a bridge north of Hebron city.
