WhatsappThe IDF says it is continuing a counter-terror operation in Tulkarm refugee camp, which began more than 35 hours ago. Tulkarm is currently occupied by violent Arab clans who appear to be bent on supporting Hamas during the war.
So far, it says engineering vehicles have uncovered dozens of explosives hidden under the roads, searched hundreds of buildings, and arrested 15 wanted Palestinians.
The IDF says troops also seized many weapons during the raids, and destroyed an explosives lab and a building used by local terror operatives to observe Israeli forces with surveillance cameras.
Eight Arab gunmen have been killed during clashes with IDF troops in the camp.
In other areas of Judea and Samaria, the IDF conducted overnight raids in various villages and cities with troops arresting 21 Arabs. Since October 7, IDF troops have arrested more than 2,700 wanted Arabs across Judea and Samaria, including more than 1,300 affiliated with Hamas.
