Israëlisch leger start grote operatie op de Westelijke Jordaanoever

August 28, 2024 - At least nine Palestinians have been killed as Israeli forces raided the flashpoint cities of Jenin and Tulkarm as well as other areas in the occupied West Bank.

The assault, one of the largest seen in the West Bank for months, followed a series of smaller raids in the area over recent weeks as Israeli forces sought to crush groups of fighters from Palestinian militant groups.

With Israeli forces battling Hamas fighters in Gaza and facing a major escalation of tensions with the Iranian-backed Hezbollah movement in southern Lebanon, Wednesday's operation underscored the multiple security threats Israel has been battling since the start of the Gaza war last year, Reuters said.
