The Islamic Jihad made a statement regarding the killing of three Palestinians on Wednesday amid clashes with Israeli security forces: "Continuation of the Zionist's crimes, that harm all the sons of our people in Jerusalem and the West Bank, will not bring Israel security on account of our sons' blood.
"There is no way to deter Israel and avoid it from carrying out crimes, besides with clashes and escalation and full-on resistance."
The statement was published several minutes prior to the death of two additional Palestinians amid violent clashes in Jenin on Thursday morning.
