Following a ceasefire in Gaza, Israel has shifted its military focus to Jenin, a Palestinian city known for its militant activity. As Israeli troops withdraw from Gaza, operations in Jenin are intensifying, with Prime Minister Netanyahu emphasizing the aim to eradicate terrorism. The presence of Hamas has grown in the West Bank during the conflict, complicating the Palestinian Authority's influence, while Iran's support for militant groups continues to supply the region with weapons. The Israeli military reported casualties among militants in ongoing operations.
On Wednesday, a spokeswoman for the Israeli military said that 10 militants had been hit during the operation in Jenin, without giving further details.
Since the war in Gaza began, Hamas has been increasingly popular and asserted its presence in the West Bank.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday that Israel's latest operation was aimed at eradicating terrorism and that it would be extensive and significant.
The city has for decades been a hotbed of militancy and a target of raids by Israeli security forces.
