According to army sources, the Israeli anti-terror operation, which began on Wednesday evening in the West Bank, will last for several days. According to Palestinian information, at least ten people have been killed so far.
According to the Times of Israel, the large-scale military operation in the occupied West Bank will last longer. The focus of the operation is the Tulkarem region, but the forces are also active in the city of Jenin and the refugee settlement of Far’a near Tubas.
Israel reports several arrests
As part of the operation, several wanted Palestinians were arrested, the army said. According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health in the West Bank, five people were killed in the operation in Far’a and two in Jenin. According to the Palestinian Red Crescent humanitarian agency, three others were killed in a drone attack on their vehicle south of Jenin.
“The Israeli army has been cracking down on an Islamist-Iranian terrorist network in the Jenin and Tulkarem refugee camps since tonight,” wrote Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz, adding that the financing and arming of terrorists and the smuggling of advanced weapons through Jordan will build an eastern terror front against Israel in Judea and Samaria (the West Bank, ed.).”
The situation in the West Bank has deteriorated since the major attack on Israel
The situation in the Israeli-occupied West Bank has deteriorated significantly since the start of the war between Israel and the Islamist-Palestinian organization Hamas in the Gaza Strip. The war was triggered by the unprecedented major attack on Israel on October 7, 2023 by Hamas, classified as a terrorist organization by the US and the EU, and other Palestinian militant groups.
