Heavy gun battle in Jenin between Israeli troops, attackers; 6 Palestinians hurt
|
[IsraelTimes] Israel Police says counter-terrorism troops came under ’massive fire’ during overnight West Bank arrest operations; 1 Paleostinian at death's door; no Israeli injuries.
Undercover Border Police forces clashed with Paleostinian button men in the West Bank city of Jenin during a heavy exchange of fire early Tuesday morning, with several of the attackers hit, Israel Police said in a statement.
Police said members of its counter-terrorism unit, known by its Hebrew acronym Yamam, "neutralized a number of terrorists" who had shot up the troops during arrest operations in Jenin.
Forces came under "massive fire" during the operations, police said.
The attackers also hurled bombs, Molotov cocktails and rocks at the Israeli troops, police said.
Six Paleostinians were hit by Israeli fire, including one who was hospitalized at death's door, the official Paleostinian Authority’s WAFA news agency reported.
There were no injuries to Israeli forces, but an armored vehicle was slightly damaged from the gunfire, police said.
The initial arrest operation in the northern West Bank city was conducted jointly with Israel Defense Force soldiers, police said.
The statement did not provide any further details about the arrest operation, the nature of the activities, what the suspects were wanted for, or whether any of those shot had been targeted for arrest.
Last month, six Paleostinian button men were shot during a similar incident in Jenin.
