Major Israel army raid kills 9 Palestinians in West Bank

23 Sept 03:08 Key points summarised by AI

Israeli forces launched a large-scale "extensive counterterrorism effort" in Jenin, West Bank, resulting in the deaths of nine Palestinians and 100 wounded.
The major raid, the biggest in years, involved air strikes, armored vehicles, and hundreds of troops, targeting what Israel claimed were "terrorist command centers" and weapon caches.
The operation caused approximately 3,000 residents to flee the Jenin refugee camp amid intense firefights, explosions, and widespread destruction.
Palestinian officials denounced the escalation as "an open war," while the UN, Jordan, and the UAE expressed deep concern, with the US affirming Israel's right to defend itself but urging civilian protection.
This raid further intensifies the already heightened Israeli-Palestinian violence in the West Bank, following a recent surge in Israeli operations and settler violence.

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.
