At least seven people were killed during an Israeli military raid and airstrikes on the occupied West Bank, the Palestinian health ministry said, Reuters reports.
Five of the seven people were killed in two separate Israeli attacks in and near the city of Qabatiya, while the two others were killed in the Tammoun area, the ministry said.
The Israeli military said its aircraft had targeted a group of gunmen and that its forces had arrested 60 militants.
The Islamic Jihad’s armed wing, Al-Quds Brigades, said its fighters had clashed with Israeli forces in both Qabatia and the Tamoun areas.
