Jenin, West Bank - The Israeli army maintains Friday, for the fourth consecutive day, the military operation “Iron Wall” against the city of Jenin, in the northern West Bank, in which 12 Palestinians have been killed and more than 40 have been wounded.

Israel’s defense minister has announced a series of raids that he says are targeting “terrorism” in the occupied West Bank, as Palestinian officials warned of a “man-made disaster.”

Dozens of people were killed or wounded after an outbreak of violence in the West Bank that Israeli military officials called a counterterrorism operation.
