The Israeli military has announced the start of a new military campaign in the West Bank city of Jenin, which it dubbed the "Iron Wall".

Israeli media reported that the campaign was executed by order of the political echelon, following a Cabinet meeting last Friday, which added the West Bank to the goals of the ongoing war.

Israeli Security Minister Israel Katz said the military operation in Jenin was "prepared to protect settlers and settlement outposts in the area," while an Israeli security source told Israeli media that "the operation in Jenin will be unprecedented in its size and scope."

Israeli media further noted that the Israeli military, Shin Bet, and "Border Guards" began an operation meant to "foil terrorism" in Jenin, which will continue for the coming days, asserting that a large IOF force has advanced on Jenin from all directions after the Shin Bet disrupted internet communications throughout the Jenin Refugee Camp.

"Israel's" Walla news website's military analyst Amir Bohbot said the military operation in Jenin began with a UAV attack on infrastructure. He further said that the operation will continue for as long as needed, noting that the goal is to "secure the Israeli Army's freedom of operation throughout the West Bank, and destroy and neutralize terrorist infrastructure and time bombs."
