The IDF says it is further expanding an ongoing counter-terrorism offensive in the northern West Bank, with troops beginning to operate in the Nur Shams camp near Tulkarem overnight.
So far, troops have shot several terror operatives and detained wanted Palestinians in the area, the military says.
The offensive, dubbed Operation Iron Wall, was launched on January 21, and the military expects it to last several more weeks.
