The city of Jenin, a Palestinian militant stronghold in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, has become a new front for Israel days after it reached a ceasefire deal with Hamas that suspended a 15-month-old war in Gaza.

Jenin, West Bank - The Israeli army maintains Friday, for the fourth consecutive day, the military operation “Iron Wall” against the city of Jenin, in the northern West Bank, in which 12 Palestinians have been killed and more than 40 have been wounded.

As Israel withdraws some of its troops from Gaza during a cease-fire there, it has turned attention to another Palestinian territory — in particular a city with a history of militant activity.
