The army later said it destroyed 23 buildings in the operation.
JENIN – The Israeli military said Sunday that it had killed at least 50 Palestinians during more than two weeks of operations in the occupied West Bank, earlier levelling buildings in Jenin refugee camp in the territory.
The Palestinian foreign ministry in a statement condemned the Israeli action "to blow up large neighbourhoods", describing the result as a "brutal scene". "In an advance operation, over 15 terrorists were eliminated in aerial strikes," it added. A military spokesman told AFP that the operation was launched on January 14.
Witnesses reported a "large" deployment of Israeli forces in the morning around the towns of Tubas and Tamun, southeast of Jenin. The Israeli government accuses Iran, which backs armed groups across the Middle East including Hamas in Gaza, of attempting to send weapons and money to militants in the West Bank.On Saturday, Israel conducted two air strikes in Jenin, and "struck and eliminated a terrorist cell on its way to carry out an imminent terrorist attack" in Qabatiya, the military said, adding that "two terrorists" were killed.
The military said one of those killed had been released from Israeli detention in 2023 as part of the first truce in the Gaza war.
