JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel’s top general resigned on Tuesday, citing the security and intelligence failures related to Hamas’ surprise attack that triggered the war in the Gaza Strip. Israel meanwhile launched a large operation in the occupied West Bank, killing at least eight people, according to Palestinian officials.

The Israeli military killed at least seven Palestinians in the occupied West Bank on Tuesday as the prime minister announced the start of a “large-scale military operation” in the restive city of Jenin.

Israel's defence minister said on Tuesday forces were applying lessons learned in Gaza as a major operation continued in Jenin which the military said was aimed at countering Iranian-backed militant groups in the volatile West Bank city.

At least 10 Palestinians have been killed and dozens injured in an Israeli raid in the occupied West Bank, with neighbouring Jordan’s foreign minister warning that the offensive could lead the West Bank to “explode”.

Palestinian officials say Israeli forces kill at least 7 people in a new offensive in the occupied West Bank as Trump rescinds sanctions on settlers.

"It is striking that Israel was not mentioned in the president's inauguration speech," a senior Hamas official told Newsweek.

The action came a day after President Donald Trump said he will lift sanctions on ultranationalist Israeli settlers who attacked Palestinian villages.

Daniel Levy, President of the U.S./Middle East Project, examines the potential U.S. ambassador to the U.N.’s view that Israel has a biblical right to the West Bank.

As Israel presses ahead with West Bank raid on Jenin, Palestinians fear more attacks from military and settlers.

Two nights of armed attacks on Palestinian villages in the West Bank have left homes destroyed and dozens injured.
