On 28 August 2024, Israel launched the largest military operation into the northern West Bank in more than 20 years since Operation Defensive Shield in 2002, in a significant escalation of the continual Israeli incursions into the region against Palestinian militias during the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.
Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesman Avichay Adraee announced the self-declared counter-terror operation in a joint statement with the Shin Bet. Israeli foreign minister Israel Katz stated that the operation was a "full-fledged war" focused on stamping out "terrorist infrastructures", accusing Iran of trying to establish an "eastern terrorist front" against Israeli in the West Bank by funding and arming local militants.
The military operation is focusing on the cities of Tulkarm and Jenin, with hundreds of troops from the IDF involved, as well as bulldozers and air support. Operations were also reported in al-Fara'a refugee camp, near Tubas. Entry points into Tulkarm and Jenin were blocked off by the IDF, which also encircled two hospitals in Tulkarm.
In response, Hamas has called for Palestinians in the West Bank to rise up and blamed the escalation on United States support for Israel. It also called on the Palestinian Authority's security forces to join the fighting against Israel. The Palestinian Authority condemned the operation and called on the United States to intervene.
