Nine Palestinians Killed in Israeli Raids

Israeli military operations in the occupied West Bank have resulted in the deaths of at least nine Palestinians, with additional reports of injuries to several others during a coordinated raid across multiple cities, including Jenin, Tubas, and Tulkarm. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed drone strikes targeting alleged armed militants, claiming to neutralize threats to their forces. Reports indicate that hospitals faced restrictions due to the military's actions, raising concerns over civilian access to medical care amid ongoing violence. The operations are described as the largest in the West Bank since the second intifada, with significant destruction to infrastructure noted in the affected areas. Palestinian officials claim that over 600 individuals have died in the West Bank since the onset of the Israel-Hamas conflict in October 2023. This escalation in violence aligns with Israel's broader military campaign against Palestinian militants in response to attacks originating from Gaza.
