The invasion was part of an escalating pattern of extrajudicial assassinations of Palestinian resistance fighters.
Three fighters were killed during the confrontation in the Habalah quarter, as a third comrade of Juneidi and Isleem, 23-year-old Waleed Dakhil, had joined the fight in the middle of the exchange of fire. Other resistance fighters from Nablus-based resistance groups, such as the Nablus Brigade and the Balata Brigade, were also killed during armed confrontations with the Israeli military throughout the city.
Seven of the slain were resistance fighters, identified as Mohammad Khaled Anbusi, 25, Tamer Nimr Ahmad Minawi, 33, Musaab Muneer Mohammad Oweis, 26, Jasir Jameel Abdelwahhab Qan’ir, 23, Husam Basam Isleem, 24, Walid Riyad Hussein Dakhil, 23, and Mohammad Abu Bakr Juneidi, 23. The home where the armed youth had made their last stand now lies in ruins, water pipes flooding the area.
