Israeli troops wreak havoc in Jenin West Bank amid ongoing offensive
Israeli forces raided Jenin on Thursday (13 June), attacking medical teams and bulldozing neighborhoods, causing power outages. The raid follows heightened tensions since an October 2023 Hamas attack, with at least 544 Palestinians killed and over 5,000 injured by Israeli fire in the occupied territory.
In the early hours of Thursday (13 June), Israeli army forces raided the West Bank city of Jenin, eyewitnesses reported.
The incursion marks another episode in the ongoing assault against Jenin and its camp, according to local sources.
WAFA correspondents detailed that the Israeli occupation army declared Jenin camp a closed military zone.
In a move that exacerbated tensions, soldiers attacked medical teams and ambulances, restricting the movement of local residents by preventing them from entering or leaving the area.
Videos circulating on social media depict an Israeli bulldozer operating in the streets, underscoring the extent of the military activity.

During the raid, Israeli soldiers broke into several homes and damaged residents' parked vehicles.
The forces also targeted fruit and vegetable stalls owned by Palestinian vendors within the camp.
Additionally, Israeli army bulldozers destroyed electricity poles and wires in Jenin refugee camp, causing a power outage.
This raid comes amid heightened tensions across the West Bank, following a deadly military offensive launched by Israel against the Gaza Strip after an attack by the Hamas group on 7 October 2023.
Since then, at least 544 Palestinians have been killed, and over 5,000 others injured by Israeli army fire in the occupied territory, according to the Health Ministry.
