The girl was shot in the head on Saturday in the city of Jenin on the northern West Bank, where Israel has carried out an offensive in the past week.

Israel's military claims that its forces fired at a group of armed individuals who had barricaded themselves behind a structure, but reports have come in that a non-involved civilian was injured. The incident is being investigated, according to the military.

At least eleven Palestinians have been killed in Jenin since the Israeli offensive began. According to Palestinian health authorities, another man was killed on Saturday in Balata, a refugee camp on the central West Bank.
