IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi held an assessment in the West Bank city of Jenin earlier today, amid an ongoing operation there, the military says.

Halevi was joined by the head of the Central Command, Maj. Gen. Avi Bluth; the commander of the West Bank division, Brig. Gen. Yaki Dolf; and the commander of the Menashe Regional Brigade, Col. Ayub Kayuf.

“We are dismantling the terrorism that comes from the refugee camps in Judea and Samaria,” Halevi is quoted by the IDF as saying.
