During a diplomatic visit to the Jenin refugee camp in the occupied West Bank, a delegation from over 20 countries, including Ireland, Germany, and France, was fired upon by the Israeli army, prompting immediate precautions as diplomats sought cover. No injuries were reported, but the Palestinian Authority condemned the incident as a “deliberate and unlawful act,” while Irish and German officials expressed outrage over the “unprovoked” shooting, with France’s foreign minister demanding an explanation from Israel. The Israeli Defense Forces claimed the diplomats strayed from an approved route, and shots were fired as a warning.
