The Israel Defense Forces confirms it carried out an airstrike against a group of Palestinian gunmen in the West Bank city of Jenin.
The IDF says the gunmen were stationed at a cemetery on the outskirts of Jenin, and “posed a threat to security forces as they left the refugee camp.”
“This is further proof of the exploitation of civilian sites throughout the city and in the Jenin refugee camp by terror elements,” the IDF says.
Palestinian media report several casualties in the strike.
