After approximately 45 hours of intensive operations, the IDF has successfully concluded a counter-terrorism mission in Tulkarem in the West Bank.

During the operation, IDF troops meticulously combed through approximately 1,000 buildings, uncovering a staggering cache of more than 400 explosive devices. Additionally, they seized 27 weapons and various military equipment that posed a threat to security.

The mission also led to the discovery and destruction of five explosive manufacturing labs and four sites utilized by local terrorist operatives for monitoring Israeli forces through surveillance cameras. Engineering vehicles were deployed to detect and eliminate dozens of concealed explosives hidden beneath the camp’s roads.

The IDF reported the arrest of 37 wanted Palestinians during the operation, which included the apprehension of several high-ranking members of a local terror network.

The operation saw the loss of at least eight Palestinian gunmen in clashes with IDF troops, with some eliminated in an airstrike on Wednesday.
