On that day, Israeli forces stormed the Jenin refugee camp at dawn, backed by warplanes, leading to what was described as the most violent aggression since the biggest Israeli raid on the West Bank in 2002.

At least 12 Palestinians were killed and hundreds of others were wounded during the Israeli military operation, targeting the northern Palestinian town of Jenin and its refugee camp.
