3 Palestinian militants killed by Israeli police during hospital raid in West Bank

Israeli soldiers have shot and killed three fighters in a hospital in Jenin, in the West Bank that is controlled by Israel.

The security camera video showed a group of undercover police officers pretending to be doctors and regular people walking down a hallway with their guns ready.

The Israeli army said that the fighters were hiding in the hospital and that one of them was getting ready to do an attack.

The Palestinian Authority’s health ministry said Israel attacked hospitals and caused many deaths.

Hamas, a group of Palestinians with guns who follow the Islamic religion, is fighting with Israel in Gaza. They say that Israeli forces killed three of their fighters, including one of their own members, after Hamas attacked Israel on 7 October.

Another group with weapons, called Palestinian Islamic Jihad, said two of the people who died were part of their group and were siblings. It also said that one of them has been getting help at the hospital.

The security camera at Ibn Sina hospital recorded a video of the Israeli undercover unit moving quickly through a hallway with their weapons pointed in different directions. Someone took clothes from a person who was kneeling with their hands behind their head, and then covered their head with the clothes.

There is a lot of fighting in the West Bank since the 7 October attacks. Israeli soldiers are arresting Palestinians and there are fights almost every day. Jenin has been a target of raids for a long time because it is a place where militants are strong.

Since October 7th, Israeli soldiers have killed at least 357 Palestinians in the West Bank, and Israeli settlers have killed at least eight, according to the United Nations.

Palestinians from the West Bank have attacked and killed at least 10 Israelis in the West Bank and Israel recently.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said that the Hamas suspect who was killed had been planning an attack similar to the October 7th massacre. On that day, a large group of Hamas fighters attacked Israel from Gaza, and around 1,300 people, mostly civilians, were killed. They also took around 250 people as hostages back to Gaza.

The attack made Israel start a fight in Gaza to try to destroy Hamas. The health ministry in Gaza, run by Hamas, says that over 26,600 Palestinians, mostly women and children, have been killed in the Israeli attack.

The news agency in the West Bank, Wafa, said that three Palestinians in the hospital were killed on purpose.

As per the hospital staff, around 10 Israeli special forces in regular clothes went to the third floor and used quiet weapons to kill the men.

One of the PIJ members who was killed had been in the hospital for treatment since October 25th.
