Israel’s deadly raid in the Jenin refugee camp has entered its third day, with Israeli forces now threatening to forcibly evacuate residents. Hundreds of Palestinians began leaving their homes in the camp on Thursday as the operation continued to escalate.
In separate incidents, two Palestinian men were killed overnight in Burqin, raising the death toll to 12 across Jenin governorate since the start of the large-scale raids. The Israeli military has confirmed the deaths, identifying the men as members of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad group.

The ongoing raids form part of Israel’s broader Iron Wall campaign across the occupied Palestinian territories, which began shortly after a ceasefire in Gaza. Al Quds Today news network reported that the two men were killed in an armed clash with Israeli forces, which lasted several hours.
The Israeli military stated that Muhammad Abu al-Asaad and Qutaiba al-Shalabi were responsible for a shooting attack in Funduq earlier this month that resulted in the deaths of three Israelis and injuries to six others. The raid is intensifying tensions across the region.
