STORYLINE:
A major Israeli military operation in the occupied West Bank killed at least eight Palestinians on Tuesday and left dozens wounded, Palestinian health officials said, as Israel’s fragile ceasefire with Hamas in Gaza entered its third day.

Israel’s ceasefire with Hamas in Gaza does not apply to the West Bank, where Israeli troops have carried out near-daily raids during the war that often ignite gunbattles.

The built-up Jenin refugee camp in the northern West Bank has long been a bastion of armed struggle, and has been a focus of Israeli raids.

The Israeli military said in a statement that “forces have initiated a counterterrorism operation” in the area.

Earlier Tuesday the Palestinian Health Ministry said an Israeli strike on the Jenin refugee camp killed two people. Their identity was not immediately clear.

The Palestinian Authority, which administers parts of the West Bank, launched its own raid late last year into the Jenin area, hoping to position itself as a serious player in governing postwar Gaza.

The Palestinian Health Ministry says more than 800 people have been killed by Israeli forces in the West Bank since October 2023.
