Israeli troops kill 9 Palestinians in a West bank military operation

Palestinian officials reported today that nine Palestinians, including an elderly woman, were killed in a raid by the Israeli military in the occupied West Bank.

The Palestinian health minister stated that the situation in Jenin was dire, with numerous injuries and ambulances unable to access the affected area. Additionally, the children’s ward of a local hospital was hit with Israeli tear gas, reported the BBC.

The Israeli military did not release many details, but according to Israeli media, the raid was carried out to prevent a “major attack” by militants.

This is the latest in a long line of Palestinian killings by Israeli troops.
