As per Al-Manar, the fighters trapped the invading forces in a fiery ambush, employing successive explosives followed by direct and intense gunfire. The operation resulted in unspecified casualties among the occupation troopers, prompting the Israelis to call for reinforcements, warplanes, and reconnaissance aircraft to evacuate their wounded and dead.

The Jenin Brigades, an armed wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement, in a statement, emphasized that the Palestinian ambush compelled the Israelis to unleash violence on civilians, targeting the As’ous family and resulting in the martyrdom of six individuals All the Way to Al-Quds.

At least six Palestinians have been killed in an Israeli drone strike on Jenin, amid an uptick in violence from Israeli forces against the West Bank since October 7.
