An exchange of fire took place between the Israeli military and the Palestinians. Three people died and almost 30 people were injured.
An Israeli military vehicle exploded on Monday, June 19, after hitting an explosive device under an operation in the West Bank. This was announced on Monday by the press service of the Israel Defense Forces on its Twitter page.
“This morning, the Israel Defense Forces and the border police carried out an operation to stop two suspects in the city of Jenin … While the security forces were leaving the city, a military vehicle collided with an explosive device and was damaged, ” said the report.
Information about casualties among the Israeli military was not provided. It was also noted that “military helicopters opened fire on one of the districts of Jenin after the discovery of armed men in it.”
Reuters reported that the Israeli military killed three Palestinians and wounded at least 29 during an operation in the West Bank. Israeli special forces, supported by a military helicopter, killed three Palestinians, including a teenager.
The IDF described the incident as “a massive battle with armed members of the local population who were throwing military explosives at them.”
The Palestinian Health Ministry said on its Facebook page that at least three Arabs had died. In addition, 31 others were wounded in clashes with Israeli forces in Jenin. The condition of at least six injured is assessed as critical.
There is no information yet if any of them are linked to Palestinian armed groups.
Remember, as previously reported, in 2022, Israel’s income from arms exports to other countries will reach $12.5 billion.
