Following the initial explosion, a rescue team attempted to aid the injured. However, a second explosive was detonated during the rescue effort, leading to additional casualties.
The incident resulted in one soldier killed, six moderately injured, and ten lightly injured. The IDF reported that the injured were transported to nearby hospitals for treatment.
The mission’s objective was to arrest terrorists and dismantle terror infrastructure in Jenin. Reports state that several improvised explosive devices (IEDs) were activated against their forces during the operation.
Palestinian sources reported that 25 individuals were arrested overnight across the West Bank, including at least eight suspects in Jenin. Among those detained was senior Fatah member Jamal Hawail.
