An Israeli airstrike has killed at least 10 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, Reuters quotes the Palestinian health ministry as saying.
The airstrike was in the area of Tubas, in the northern West Bank, the Palestinian Red Crescent said. The Israeli military claimed its attack targeted armed fighters.
The West Bank, a kidney-shaped stretch of land about 100 kilometres long, was seized by Israel in the 1967 Middle East war and is seen by Palestinians as the core of a future independent state, along with Gaza.
Israel has stepped up operations in the West Bank since a ceasefire in Gaza came into effect on January 19.
