Israel ramps up West Bank offensive and says troops will remain in some areas for a year

Israeli tanks have entered the occupied West Bank for the first time since 2002, as observed in Jenin, where troops will remain for the coming year according to Defense Minister Israel Katz.
The current military operation in the West Bank is the longest since the early 2000s, with over 800 Palestinians killed since the war in Gaza began on October 7, 2023, according to U.N. Reports.
Palestinian officials condemned the military actions, calling them a 'dangerous escalation' and urging international intervention against what they described as Israeli aggression.
