Clashes resumed in the Jenin camp in the West Bank at dawn on Saturday between Palestinian resistance fighters and Israeli occupation forces, amidst the sound of explosions, on the fourth day of what Israel called the large-scale military operation in the northern West Bank.
Tel Aviv Tribune’s correspondent reported that military vehicles, including bulldozers, stormed Jenin camp at dawn today, while dozens of Israeli infantry soldiers are stationed on the outskirts of the camp.
The correspondent reported that the occupation forces blew up the homes of Palestinian citizens in the Al-Jabariyat neighborhood adjacent to the Jenin camp.
Meanwhile, the Jenin Battalion of the Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement, said that its fighters were able to detonate a pre-prepared explosive device in a military vehicle on the Al-Jabariyat Street axis, confirming that injuries were inflicted among the occupation forces.
In the footsteps of the camp #fetal.. The West Bank regions have drawn an escalating line of resistance work, as recent years have witnessed a remarkable escalation in military action by the West Bank factions, until they adopted tactics that are more painful to the occupation forces.

The battalion added that the resistance fighters continue to target the occupation forces with a barrage of bullets in the axes of Haifa, Nazareth, Nablus and the vicinity of Jenin camp.
At the same time, clashes erupted between Palestinian resistance fighters and occupation forces that stormed the town of Kafr Dan, west of Jenin.
On the other hand, the Israeli Army Radio quoted the Central Command as saying that the military operation in Jenin is not time-bound and “will end after achieving its goals.”
Yesterday, Friday, the Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), mourned three of its men in the West Bank, and said that the commander Wissam Ayman Khazem was martyred along with two of his comrades as a result of an air strike in the village of Al-Zababdeh, east of Jenin.
The Brigades also mourned the martyr Muhammad Tawfiq Awfi, who was martyred the previous day as a result of the airstrike on Tulkarm, in which the commander Muhammad Jaber Abu Shuja was martyred.
The occupation army began its extensive operation in the West Bank at dawn on Wednesday under heavy air force cover, and the Israeli media described the attack as the largest of its kind since Operation Defensive Shield in 2002.
In conjunction with its ongoing war on Gaza for nearly 11 months, the Israeli army has escalated its attacks in the West Bank, including Jerusalem, killing more than 670 Palestinians, including 150 children, injuring more than 5,400, and arresting more than 10,000.
