STORYLINE:
Hundreds of mourners held a funeral on Friday for five Palestinians killed in an Israeli airstrike in the occupied West Bank, Palestinian officials say.
The Israeli military said it targeted a group of militants in the northern city of Tubas early Wednesday.
The Palestinian Health Ministry in the West Bank confirmed the toll but did not say whether those killed by Israeli fire are militants or civilians.
Israel has stepped up its military raids across the territory in recent weeks and says it is working to dismantle militant groups and prevent attacks.
Palestinians say such operations are aimed at cementing Israel’s seemingly open-ended military rule over the territory.
Israel captured the West Bank, along with east Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip, in the 1967 Mideast war.
The Palestinians want all three territories for their future state.
The West Bank has seen a surge in violence since Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack out of Gaza ignited the war there.
