IDF launches Operation Iron Wall targeting terrorist infrastructure
Commando Brigade conducts extensive raid in Jenin refugee camp
Significant weapons caches and manufacturing sites destroyed
Over 24,000 registered refugees inhabit the contested area
Dozens of terrorists were arrested, weapons depots and a lathe for manufacturing weapons were destroyed, the IDF said.
The army's Jenin raid, dubbed "Operation Iron Wall," launched on Tuesday, comes on the heels of the Palestinian Authority's failed crackdown in the Jenin refugee camp.
Previous Israeli counterterror operations in 2023 and 2024 in the Jenin camp uncovered a tunnel shaft, a rocket launcher, large amounts of weapons and bomb-making laboratories. As of 2023, just over 24,000 registered refugees were living in the camp that Palestinians have dubbed "The Martyr's Capital." (ANI/TPS)
