Two days of deadly Israeli raid devastate West Bank's Jenin

The large-scale Israeli assault on Jenin occupied West Bank, lasted 48 hours after Israeli forces withdrew from their positions in the city's camp late on Tuesday.

The land and air assault involved more than 3,000 Israeli soldiers, dozens of armoured bulldozers and drone strikes.

The Israeli army said one of its soldiers died, while 12 Palestinians had been killed and dozens were injured.

Images from the northern West Bank city showed widescale destruction, with much of Jenin’s crowded refugee camp left charred and in rubble from the assault which displaced at least 3,000 residents.

Residents also do not have access to electricity and clean, drinkable water due to the damage Israeli forces carried out on the main water pipelines and the electricity grid. Almost 80% of houses were damaged, the city’s deputy governor Kamal Abu al-Rub told the Turkish Anadolu news agency, and most of the Palestinians in Jenin are "massively distressed" by the Israeli military raid, the International Committee of the Red Cross has warned.
