Five Palestinians, including a 60-year-old woman, were killed by Israeli forces in Jenin in the past 24 hours, the Palestinian Authority said on Tuesday, adding to a rising toll from one of the largest military operations in the West Bank in recent years.

Dubbed “Iron Wall” by the Israeli military, the operation in the northern West Bank began days after a ceasefire took effect in Gaza, a separate Palestinian territory. Israel has occupied the West Bank since 1967 and its troops carry out regular raids there.
