This is the best summary I could come up with:


There was intense fighting on Tuesday night in the Jenin camp, a stronghold of Palestinian militants, where the Israeli military launched its biggest operation in years in the West Bank back in July.

Outside the house where 24-year-old Mahmoud al-Saadi's body was brought before burial, the sound of gunfire to honour his death met the wails of his family - militants and his mother each claiming him in their own way.

Saadi's name and face will now join the army of those pasted on walls around the camp that commemorate the casualties - many of them aligned with militant groups - of previous deadly confrontations there.

The bloodshed in Jenin was the latest in an upsurge in violence in the West Bank, where the Israeli military says it has been carrying out counter-terrorism activities over the past year and a half.

The Israeli military said hundreds of rioters gathered next to the fence and detonated explosive devices, and that its forces responded with "riot disposal means and sniper fire".

Israel has kept the Erez crossing with Gaza almost completely closed since the Jewish Rosh Hashanah holiday, in response to the recent renewed demonstrations near the fence.


The original article contains 802 words, the summary contains 196 words. Saved 76%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
