IDF imposes curfew on Jenin
The Israeli army imposed a curfew Sunday in Jenin after tanks, jeeps and armoured vehicles re-entered the center of the West Bank town. The sound of gunfire could be heard but there were no reports of any casualties, Palestinian sources said, adding that some 30 vehicles had entered the town. An Israeli military source confirmed troops had entered the town and imposed a curfew âas part of the ongoing operation against the terrorist infrastructureâ. Israeli troops redeployed on the outskirts of Jenin on Saturday after a two-day sweep targetted against Palestinian militant groups. Four Israeli soldiers and four Palestinians, including two children, were wounded in the operation, during which five wanted militants were arrested.
