The IDF says it has wrapped up a two-day counterterrorism operation in the West Bank city of Tulkarem, during which seven Palestinian gunmen were killed.

Among the dead were several prominent members of a local terror network in Tulkarem, according to the military and Shin Bet.

The operatives were killed in drone strikes and in clashes with the troops.

The IDF says troops also destroyed explosive devices, seized weapons, and detained several suspects.
