A Palestinian man careened his car into pedestrians in Tel Aviv, wounding at least four people, in an attack as a response to Israel’s ongoing military operation.
The large-scale raid of the Jenin camp, which began Monday, is one of the most intense military operations in the occupied West Bank in nearly two decades.
Columns of black smoke periodically punctuated the skyline over the camp in the northern West Bank city, long a Palestinian militant stronghold. Meanwhile, the Palestinian Health Ministry said Tuesday that the two-day death toll rose to 10, with two more deaths reported overnight. Israeli Police Commissioner Kobi Shabtai arrived at the site of the reported car-ramming attack in Tel Aviv.The Jenin camp and an adjacent town of the same name have been a flashpoint since Israeli-Palestinian violence began escalating in the spring of 2022.
The Hamas militant group praised the attack as “heroic and revenge for the military operation in Jenin.”Israeli media reported that the army had arrested at least 120 suspected Palestinian militants since Monday.
