Defense minister: We’ve ended Jenin’s status as a factory for terror

Defense Minister Yoav Gallant says Jenin “in the past two years had become a factory for terror. In the past two days, this ended.”

“We cut off the weapons manufacturing process, captured thousands of bombs, destroyed dozens of production sites, workshops and explosives labs,” he says.

Gallant says the military will ensure it can operate freely against terror in the city.

“We will reach a situation where we can move everywhere… with a squad and not an entire brigade.”
