The major overnight raids in the West Bank, focused on militant strongholds in Jenin and Tulkarm, represent a significant escalation in Israel's military operation against Palestinian armed groups, following months of rising violence.
Despite the Israeli operations resulting in over 580 Palestinian deaths since October 7, the escalation of raids has not diminished the power of armed groups and instead worsened the conditions for Palestinian civilians.
In response to the raids, a Palestinian armed faction stated they engaged Israeli forces on the outskirts of Jenin as indications of resistance grow, reflecting the ongoing tension and violence in the region.
The Israeli military stated that these raids, described as the largest since July 2023, involved drone strikes and ground troops, highlighting a continued focus on suppressing militant activity in the West Bank.
