Foreign diplomats from over 20 countries, including the UK, France and China came under Israeli fire on an official West Bank visit.
The group was visiting a refugee camp in the Palestinian city of Jenin.
Israeli military said "soldiers operating in the area fired warning shots to distance them away,” but added that it "regrets the inconvenience caused.”
The Palestinian Authority's Foreign Ministry said the delegation was on an official mission to “observe and assess the humanitarian situation and document the ongoing violations perpetrated” by Israel.
No injuries were reported in the incident which drew prompt condemnation from Spain, Italy and Türkiye.
