An IDF operation near Tulkarem in the northern West Bank leaves six people dead and several others wounded early this morning, according to the Palestinian ministry of health.

“Six martyrs killed by the occupation [Israel] and some who were seriously wounded were transported to the Thabet Thabet government hospital in Tulkarem,” the ministry says in a short statement.

The Palestinian Authority’s official Wafa news agency says they were killed in a drone strike.

There was no immediate comment from the IDF.
