The Israeli military has launched a significant operation in the occupied West Bank, resulting in the deaths of at least nine Palestinians, according to Palestinian health officials.
Conflicting Reports on Casualties
While Palestinian health officials have confirmed nine deaths, other sources suggest the death toll could be higher, with some reports indicating that at least 11 people have been killed since the operation began at midnight local time.
Focus on Counterterrorism
Israeli security forces described the operation as a “counterterrorism operation” aimed at thwarting terrorist activities in the region. The primary focus of the military’s actions has been on the cities of Jenin and Tulkarm.
Multiple Cities Targeted Simultaneously
This operation appears to be one of the largest in recent times, with Israeli forces targeting at least four Palestinian cities simultaneously. In addition to Jenin and Tulkarm, the cities of Nablus and Tubas are also under military pressure.
The ongoing operation has heightened tensions in the region, with further developments expected as the situation unfolds.
