Israel's terrible operation in the West Bank, many casualties
Israeli troops have carried out a terrible operation on the occupied West Bank of Palestine. Many people were injured in the raid. At least four Palestinians were killed. At least 44 others were injured. CNN reported this news citing Palestinian officials.
According to the news, on Wednesday (September 28) morning, the Israeli army carried out an operation in Jenin in the occupied West Bank. Local officials termed the operation, which lasted for several hours, as one of the worst operations of this year.
Israeli soldiers entered the refugee camp with about a dozen military vehicles around 9:00 a.m. that day. The Palestinian Ministry of Health said four people were killed in the operation. Their names are Ahmad Alaoneh, Abed Hazem, Mohammad Al Wanneh and Mohammad Abu Nasah respectively.
According to Al Jazeera, three of the four dead were members of the Palestinian armed group Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade. In addition, about 44 people were injured, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.
The Israeli army (IDF) said an attack took place in the capital Tel Aviv in April this year. In view of that, this operation was carried out. Three people were killed in the attack in Tel Aviv. In addition, IDF troops entered the refugee camp to arrest suspects involved in several recent gun attacks.
According to local media reports, 24-year-old Ahmad Alaoneh was an officer in the Palestinian Authority (PA) intelligence service. He was killed in an armed conflict with Israeli forces.
Abed Hazem and Al Wanneh were killed in the missile attack. The Hazems were killed when an IDF missile hit their home. The Israeli forces claimed that they were involved in the Tel Aviv attack last April.
After the operation began, clashes between Israeli forces and Palestinian fighters took place in the refugee camp and its surrounding areas for several hours until noon. At the entrance to the refugee camp, young Palestinians tried to resist by throwing bricks at Israeli soldiers. In response, Israeli soldiers fired fresh bullets and tear gas.
Meanwhile, the Palestinian Authority (PA) and Palestinian political parties have announced a day of mourning for the casualties. At the same time, strikes have been called in major cities of the occupied West Bank, such as Jenin, Nablus, Ramallah and Hebron.
