Funerals have been held in the occupied West Bank for six Palestinians.
They were killed in an Israeli drone strike on the Nur Shams refugee camp, near Tulkarem city.
Soldiers prevented ambulances from reaching the site.
Israeli forces also detained 14 Palestinians across the occupied West Bank on Wednesday.

Al Jazeera’s Imran Khan has more from the Nur Shams refugee camp in the occupied West Bank.

A Palestinian paramedic has told Al Jazeera what he saw while responding to the overnight drone strike on the Nur Shams refugee camp in Tulkarem, which killed six Palestinians and injured many others.

“I arrived at the place after hearing the first bomb”, said first-responder Laith Hussain. “We found the men lying everywhere. They were all our friends and brothers. Their injuries were from missile shrapnel. One man had his hand cut off and another had his foot cut off.

“They were young men and civilians. The occupation does not differentiate between civilians and military,” he said.
