On Wednesday, Israeli forces killed at least three Palestinians in the al-Faraa camp located near Tubas in the occupied West Bank. This tragic event highlights the ongoing violence in the region.
According to the Palestinian state news agency, WAFA, these individuals were fatally shot when Israeli military units fired bullets and shells at their residence.
The Israeli army reported that the three deceased were considered wanted terrorists involved in selling weapons for terrorist activities.
Additionally, the military statement indicated that two other individuals were apprehended during this incident.
This occurrence is part of a broader weeks-long offensive by Israel, which has resulted in the destruction of homes and critical infrastructure in West Bank refugee camps.
Many Palestinians have been displaced from their homes in these camps due to a large-scale counter-terrorism operation initiated by Israel on January 21 in the northern West Bank city of Jenin.
Israel perceives the West Bank as a battleground in its multi-front war against Iranian-backed groups operating near its borders. This operation was launched following a ceasefire reached in the Gaza conflict with the Palestinian militant organization Hamas.
