PA puts death toll in West Bank at 9 killed
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Palestinian Authority health ministry puts the death toll in Israeli raids in the northern West Bank at 9, paring back a tally of 10 killed reported earlier by the Palestinian Red Crescent.
Seven people were killed early Wednesday in Tubas, and another two in Jenin, the ministry says, identifying the two killed in Jenin as Qassam Jabarin, 25, and Asem Balout, 39.
The governor of Jenin, Kamal Abu al-Rub, says on Palestinian radio that Israeli forces have surrounded the city, blocking exit and entry points and access to hospitals, and ripping up infrastructure in the camp.
The army says it has embarked on a major anti-terror raid, following a failed bomb attack in Tel Aviv earlier this month.
