Israel, Gaza militants trade missiles after deadly West Bank raid

13 Sept 06:06 Key points summarised by AI

Israel launched air strikes on Gaza in response to militant rocket fire, escalating tensions following a deadly Israeli army raid in the West Bank.
The Israeli raid in Jenin, West Bank, resulted in the deaths of nine Palestinians, marking it as the deadliest single operation in the territory since 2005.
Palestinian groups, including Hamas and Islamic Jihad, vowed retaliation for the Jenin raid, while the Palestinian Authority announced it was cutting security coordination with Israel.
The recent violence contributes to a rising death toll in the West Bank, following 2022, which the UN recorded as the deadliest year in the Palestinian territory.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
