At least eight terrorists have been killed and 27 were injured after an extensive counterterrorism operation in Jenin was launched by the IDF early Monday morning.
IAF forces first struck Jenin from the air in the early hours of the morning, with IDF soldiers then entering the city in dozens of armored vehicles from several directions. At least 15 airstrikes were carried out by noon on Monday and 20 terror suspects were arrested.
The purpose of the operation, unofficially dubbed Operation Bayit V’Gan (House and Garden) which has been planned for months and has been delayed twice, is to restore deterrence in the northern Shomron, especially in Jenin, a hotbed of terrorism. According to a senior government official, the operations will last for “as long as it needs to.”
The IDF reported that one IDF soldier was lightly wounded after being hit by shrapnel by a “friendly” grenade.
Terror command centers and weapons depots have been struck, including an operational terror command center for the Jenin Brigade located near two UNRWA schools and a medical clinic.
Israel is preparing for the possibility that the operation will trigger the firing of rockets from Gaza.
ICYMI: 52 innocent people were murdered in terrorist attacks between June 2022 and June 2023.
15 people were murdered by the hands of terrorists from Jenin.
Israel has a responsibility to protect its citizens. No country would sit idly by in the face of such threat. pic.twitter.com/4IBEQco3o4

Finally
Enough of the terror
Enough of the fighting
Enough of the Zionist מדינת השמד
Enough of “Israel”s occupation of Palestine
עד מתי??
@Yossi
What exactly would you want to happen now that the Zionists already are where they are.
Leave E”Y totally to the Arabs and let them kill all the Yidden?
Please enlighten me what is the point of all your posts.
Is it just to say “I (or rather the Satmer Rebbe Zatzal) told you so”?
At this point I think even Rav Yoilish would agree that “Habo lehorgecha hashkeim vehorgoi”
