The Palestinian Authority health ministry reports three dead by IDF fire amid a raid in the West Bank city of Jenin. The ministry says several others are wounded.

There is no immediate comment from the IDF on the operation.

Tensions have been high in the West Bank amid the war in Gaza, with the IDF reporting that since October 7 troops have arrested some 4,150 wanted Palestinians across the West Bank, including more than 1,750 affiliated with Hamas.

According to the PA health ministry, more than 520 West Bank Palestinians have been killed in that time.
