Three Palestinians were martyred and four others were wounded by Israeli occupation forces during a raid in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin overnight, the Palestinian health ministry said on Wednesday.
Confrontations erupted in Jenin shortly following an Israeli military incursion into the city overnight Tuesday.
Videos show army vehicles and bulldozers operating in the northern West Bank city, amid pops of gunfire and at least one large explosion.
The raid also saw a drone strike on a site in the city’s refugee camp, Palestinian sources reported.
