Israel presses on with assault on occupied West Bank for third day

The Israeli army withdrew from Tulkarem after leaving trail of destruction but stepped up attacks on Jenin.

Israel’s largest military assault in two decades in the occupied West Bank has entered its third day with the army, accompanied by bulldozers, leaving a trail of destruction after firing live ammunition and tear gas.

At least three people were killed early on Friday after Israeli forces attacked a car in the village of Zababdeh, south of Jenin.

The Jenin Battalion of al-Quds Brigades, the armed wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, said earlier that its fighters engaged in “fierce clashes” with Israeli soldiers in Jenin.
