Netanyahu claims ‘Israeli’ forces thwarted armed groups in Jenin

• Netanyahu said ‘Israeli’ forces had succeeded in thwarting the plans of Palestinian armed groups in Jenin.
• The ‘Israeli’ military said its air force carried out a strike on a vehicle in Jenin, targeting what it described as a group of Palestinian fighters.

‘Israel’ claimed that its air force carried out an airstrike Friday on a vehicle in Jenin in the northern occupied West Bank, according to statements from the ‘Israeli’ military.

The army said the strike targeted a group of Palestinian fighters operating in the city.

The claim came as ‘Israeli’ forces continued operations in Jenin, where the military has conducted raids and airstrikes as part of its ongoing campaign in the occupied West Bank.

Palestinian sources said ‘Israeli’ forces detained a Palestine Red Crescent crew that was heading toward the targeted vehicle.

The detention of medical personnel has raised further concerns over access for emergency responders during military operations in Jenin.

Netanyahu said ‘Israeli’ forces had succeeded in "thwarting the plans" of armed groups in Jenin, without providing further details on the operation or the people targeted.
