At least nine Palestinians killed as Israel launches West Bank raid
Briefly

Lt Col Nadav Shoshani stated, 'The nine dead were all militants, including three killed in an airstrike in Tulkarem and another four in Al-Faraa.' He explained that 'the raids were the first stage of an even larger operation aimed at preventing attacks on Israeli civilians.' He emphasized the military's intentions to enhance security measures in what has become a critical conflict zone.
Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz called for 'dealing with the threat just as we deal with the terrorist infrastructure in Gaza,' emphasizing that 'this is a war in every respect, and we must win it.' He suggested that measures in the West Bank should mirror those taken in Gaza, underlining the intensifying military approach.
The Palestinian Health Ministry reported that 'seven bodies were brought to the hospital in Tubas, and two in Jenin,' identifying victims by name. Such casualties highlight the ongoing violence and the tragic toll it takes, drawing a response from Palestinian authorities.
Nabil Abu Rudeineh, spokesman for Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, condemned the raids, labeling them a 'serious escalation,' and called for US intervention. This reflects growing concerns about the military actions and their implications for regional stability and peace efforts.
