The IDF says it launched a counterterrorism operation in the West Bank city of Tubas and the adjacent town of Tamun this morning.

So far, the troops have killed a Palestinian gunman and wounded others amid exchanges of fire, the military says.

Several wanted Palestinians have also been detained, and weapons have been seized.

The IDF says it will provide further details on the operation later.
