Israeli strike kills five Palestinians in West Bank | BBC News


Five Palestinians have been killed in an Israeli air strike in the north of the occupied West Bank, the Palestinian health ministry says.

The Palestinian Red Crescent said a drone targeted a group of five young men near a mosque in the city of Tubas at dawn on Wednesday, and an ambulance crew transferred the bodies to the local government hospital.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said an aircraft struck an “armed terrorist cell” during counter-terrorism activity by security forces in Tubas and the nearby town of Tamun.

An Israeli military official said later that a curfew had been declared in Tubas as part of the operation.

It comes days after the largest Israeli operation in the West Bank since Hamas’s attack on Israel on 7 October and the ensuing war in Gaza.
