The Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades said its fighters detected an Israeli special force in the Jenin refugee camp, and confronted it with gunfire and explosive devices. The Resistance group stated that it successfully ambushed the Israeli unit and inflicted confirmed casualties among its soldiers.
The Brigades also revealed that occupation helicopters and ambulances came to transport casualties.
As the occupation's escalation continues to grow, the Israeli military issued a warning earlier that the situation in the West Bank could potentially explode during the holy month of Ramadan.
