STORYLINE:
Israeli military vehicles were seen on Thursday in a refugee camp in the occupied West Bank after three people were killed by an Israeli strike.
The Palestinian Health Ministry said the Israeli strike hit a home in the occupied West Bank.
It said the strike was carried out overnight into Thursday in the Tulkarem refugee camp, a built-up residential area dating back to the 1948 war surrounding Israel’s creation.
It did not say whether those killed were fighters or civilians.
There was no immediate comment from the Israeli military, with troops operating in the camp throughout Thursday.
The West Bank has seen a surge of violence since Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack out of Gaza ignited the war there.
Israeli forces carry out near-daily raids in the West Bank that often ignite gunbattles with Palestinians.
Palestinian militants have carried out a series of attacks against Israelis.
The Palestinian Health Ministry says at least 637 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire in the West Bank since the start of the war.
Israel captured the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem in the 1967 Mideast war.
The Palestinians want all three for a future state.
Israel has built scores of settlements across the West Bank that are home to over 500,000 Jewish settlers.
They have Israeli citizenship, while the 3 million Palestinians in the West Bank live under Israeli military rule, with the Palestinian Authority administering population centers.
