Video. Israel's West Bank offensive in Jenin causes devastation

Updated:

Israeli forces have launched their deadliest raid in the West Bank since the Gaza conflict began, focusing on the Jenin refugee camp.

Israeli military officials said the operations "targeting militants in Jenin, Tulkarem, and the Al-Faraa refugee camp are necessary to curb recent attacks against Israeli civilians".

The 10-day raid has devastated civilians, cutting off water and electricity, confining families, and killing at least 18 Palestinians.

Over 680 Palestinians in the West Bank have been killed since October 2023.
