High Number of Deaths in Jenin Raid due to Threats Against Soldiers
(Ha'aretz) Yaniv Kubovich - A senior IDF official said the high number of casualties in the clashes in the Jenin refugee camp was due to the "threat level against troops." The suspects were previously involved in planning and executing shooting attacks on Israeli targets, he said. According to the official, the level of force used was correct. Security forces fired anti-tank missiles at the house where the suspects were hiding due to a barrage of gunfire from inside, along with explosive devices thrown in the direction of the soldiers.
