STORYLINE:
Israeli armoured vehicles and ambulances were seen in the streets of Jenin, in the occupied West Bank on Thursday.
In the days since a fragile ceasefire took hold in the Gaza Strip, Israel has launched a major military operation in the occupied West Bank and suspected Jewish settlers have rampaged through two Palestinian towns.
The violence comes as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces domestic pressure from his far-right allies after agreeing to the truce and hostage-prisoner exchange with the Hamas militant group.
On Thursday, Israeli forces killed two Palestinian militants who carried out a deadly attack on a bus in the West Bank earlier this month.
Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump has rescinded the Biden administration’s sanctions against Israelis accused of violence in the territory.
At least nine Palestinians were killed on Tuesday, including a 16-year-old, and 40 were wounded, the Palestinian Health Ministry said. The military said its forces carried out airstrikes and dismantled roadside bombs and “hit” 10 militants — though it was not clear what that meant.
The Palestinians view such operations and the expansion of settlements as ways of cementing Israeli control over the territory, where 3 million Palestinians live under seemingly open-ended Israeli military rule, with the Western-backed Palestinian Authority administering cities and towns.
