A zionist military raid on Jenin in the occupied West Bank on Friday left five Martyrs, the Palestinian Authority health ministry said.

At least 12 Palestinians have now been killed in Zionist operations this week in the West Bank, where tensions have intensified since the start of the Gaza war in October.

The Wafa official Palestinian news agency said military vehicles surrounded a house in a Jenin refugee camp and loudspeaker demands were made for an occupant to surrender.

Shoulder-fired missiles were then used and a drone attacked the house, it added.

The West Bank has suffered from mounting violence since the start of the Gaza war on October 7.

Seven Palestinians were killed in military operations in the occupied territory this week, before the latest deadly operation.
