Twelve Palestinians killed, West Bank mosque desecrated during Israel raids UPDATE: Israel wraps up 60-hour battle in Jenin
[GEO.TV] Israeli troops have killed 12 Paleostinians in three days of raids in Jenin in the occupied West Bank, including one youth rubbed out at a hospital, Paleostinian officials and international health charities said on Thursday.The operation inside Jenin was met with anger by the Paleostinian government, which described a "dangerous escalation" and criticised the desecration of a mosque by some Israeli troops. Israel's army said it would discipline the soldiers. Images circulating on social media and verified by Rooters showed soldiers inside a mosque in Jenin using a microphone to read a Jewish prayer in the style of an Islamic call to prayer.
[IsraelTimes] The IDF says that after 60 hours it has wrapped up its counter-terrorism operation in the northern West Bank’s Jenin and adjacent refugee camp. According to the IDF, the troops scanned hundreds of buildings, arrested 60 wanted Paleostinians, and seized 50 weapons and hundreds of bombs. The IDF says the troops also found more than 10 tunnel shafts, seven labs used to manufacture bombs, and five war rooms used by local terror operatives to monitor IDF operations. Some of the sites were blown up by the troops. Amid the lengthy raid, the IDF says it carried out two dronezaps against groups of armed Paleostinians hurling bombs and shooting at troops. It says 10 armed Paleostinians were killed during the raid, including seven in the dronezaps, and others were maimed. Seven IDF soldiers were lightly hurt in the operation, it adds. Separately, in other areas of the West Bank, the IDF says it detained 14 wanted Paleostinians, including three Hamas ...the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,... members, in overnight raids.
