The situation in the West Bank has also been particularly tense since the Hamas massacres on October 7th. The Israeli military now kills several Palestinians in a drone attack in the city of Nablus. They are said to have planned terrorist attacks against civilians.
Israel’s army says it has killed “several terrorists” in a refugee camp in the city of Nablus in the occupied West Bank. The military said an aircraft attacked their hiding place during the operation in Balata. According to Palestinian sources, five men were killed in the Israeli army’s drone strike overnight. According to the Palestinian news agency Wafa, two people were also injured.
According to the army, the killed Palestinians were planning attacks against Israeli civilians and military targets. One of the dead had already been involved in attacks in the past. During the raid on the refugee camp, attackers shot at the emergency services. According to the army, the soldiers returned fire.
According to a Wafa report, a Palestinian was also killed in confrontations during a raid by the Israeli military in Tubas in the north of the West Bank. The situation in the West Bank has deteriorated significantly since the war between Israel and the Islamist Hamas, which rules in the Gaza Strip, began on October 7th. According to the Ministry of Health, around 200 Palestinians have been killed since then.
