Iyyad Hashash, a 19-year-old terrorist militant with the radical group, sustained critical injuries in the blast and died in hospital shortly afterwards, they said.
The incident occurred during a heavy gunbattle between Israeli soldiers and Palestinian militants in the Balata refugee camp, sparked after scores of troops pushed into the area to arrest wanted militants.
