Between January 21 and 27 alone, Israeli forces killed 20 Palestinians and injured 81, including 11 children, in attacks across the West Bank, according to OCHA. This includes a raid on January 25, in which undercover Israeli forces raided a village and shot and killed a two-year-old Palestinian baby.

As Israel withdraws some of its troops from Gaza during a cease-fire there, it has turned attention to another Palestinian territory — in particular a city with a history of militant activity.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the assault on Jenin would be “extensive and significant,” as the military erected new checkpoints across the West Bank.

The Israeli military says it targeted what it describes as "armed terrorists" in the town of Tamoun.
