Four more deaths in two air strikes in the West Bank
Violence in the West Bank continues to escalate: According to Palestinians, four people were killed in Israeli air raids in Dschenin and Kabatia. The army speaks of attacks on terrorists.
According to Palestinian information, a total of four people were killed in two other Israeli air strikes in the West Bank. Two Palestinians were hit on a motorcycle in Dschenin in a drone attack and two more in an attack on a car in the cub of Kabatia further south, the Ministry of Health said in Ramallah. Previously, a 16-year-old had already been killed in a drone attack in Dschenin.
The Israeli army said that in Kabatia a “car with terrorists” was attacked with an aircraft. A group of armed people was also attacked in Dschenin. Israel had started the largest military operation in Dschenin on January 21. The city is considered a stronghold of militant Palestinians. More than 20 people have been killed there since the start of the mission.
The procedure of the Israeli armed forces in Dschenin takes place at a time when the already tensioned situation in the West Bank has drastically intensified against Palestinian civilians in view of a strength of militant Palestinians and increasing violence of radical Israeli settlers.
