The IDF says troops killed 11 Palestinian gunmen in a series of airstrikes and clashes in the northern West Bank city of Jenin and nearby towns since yesterday afternoon.

The IDF publishes footage of the drone strikes, which it says killed at least four gunmen.

Seven more armed Palestinians were killed in clashes with IDF troops and Border Police officers in Jenin, Kafr Qud, and Aqabah, including several attempting to plant a bomb.

One soldier was moderately wounded amid the fighting, the IDF says.
