Israel launches largest occupied West Bank offensive since Second Intifada
The assault began just after midnight local time (09:00 PM GMT) after undercover Israeli soldiers entered the Jenin refugee camp and the Nur Shams refugee camp in Tulkarm.
In Tubas, Israeli troops arrived via military helicopters and led the assault there, particularly in the Far’a refugee camp, according to Israeli and Palestinian media.
Large numbers of Israeli forces then raided the camps and besieged hospitals, preventing paramedics from reaching them, according to eyewitnesses and the Palestinian Red Crescent Society.
