Israel launches massive operation on Palestinian camp of Jenin

Israel has launched a large-scale military operation against Palestinian militants in the Jenin refugee camp in the occupied West Bank. It started with multiple drone strikes and Israel has sent in ground forces, leading to gun battles on the streets.

Palestinian officials say eight Palestinians have been killed and more than 50 others wounded. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said they were striking "terrorist infrastructure in the Jenin area." Israel's foreign minister says they are not planning to widen the operation to the whole West Bank.
