Red Crescent sources said that ambulance crews retrieved five killed youths from the bombed vehicle, while resuscitation operations are being carried out for a sixth injured person.

The Ministry of Health confirmed that five people were killed and two others were injured, one of whom was critically, and were taken to Tubas Turkish Governmental Hospital, as a result of the occupation bombing of a car near Tubas.
