Israeli forces have withdrawn from the northern West Bank city of Jenin and its refugee camp, marking the conclusion of a three-day large-scale military operation, according to Palestinian security sources.
Throughout the operation, Israeli forces conducted extensive raids on hundreds of homes and detained numerous Palestinians, as reported by Palestinian security and local sources.
The Palestinian health ministry confirmed that 12 Palestinians lost their lives during the military intervention.
The Israeli military stated that its troops faced gunfire and explosive attacks from Palestinian militants while engaged in “building surveys” in Jenin, leading to a response from the Israeli forces.
The broader context of the recent Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which began on October 7, has resulted in at least 286 Palestinians being killed by Israeli gunfire in the West Bank, as reported by WAFA, the official Palestinian news agency.
The withdrawal of Israeli forces from Jenin comes amid heightened tensions and ongoing concerns about the evolving situation in the region.
