Israeli soldiers have arrested a young man after storming the Jenin Governmental Hospital in the occupied West Bank, sources confirmed to Al Jazeera.

The incursion took place in view of a number of staff, civilians and patients, with the Wafa news agency reporting that a staff member was also detained before being let go.

Israeli occupation forces have killed at least 36 people and wounded or arrested dozens more since they launched their large-scale military incursion into Jenin and its refugee camp in January.
