Explosion during an Israeli raid on Nur Shams refugee camp, in Tulkarem, on December 27

A recent raid conducted by Israelis in the occupied West Bank's refugee camp has led to the death of six Palestinians, the Authority of the Palestinian Ministry of Health announced on Wednesday.

It was reported that these casualties happened to be the latest rise of violence in the territory since the war in Gaza began on Oct. 7.

The Israeli military said that its forces had carried out “counterterrorism activity” in the Nur Shams refugee camp overnight. The military said that its aircraft had struck “terrorists who hurled explosive devices at the forces.” It was not possible to independently verify the military’s account.

Israeli forces have conducted near-daily raids in the occupied West Bank since Hamas launched the Oct. 7 terrorist attack from Gaza that Israeli officials say killed about 1,200 people. In response, the Israeli authorities have severely restricted movement within the West Bank and revoked work permits for Palestinian residents of the territory who hold jobs in Israel.

Israel has described its West Bank raids as an extension of the war against Hamas in Gaza, saying that pockets of the West Bank have been strongholds for terrorist activity. The operations have also led to a surge in arrests, with many of the detainees being held without charge or trial.

More than 280 Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank since Oct. 7, mostly by Israeli forces, but also in clashes with armed Israeli settlers, who Palestinians say have become increasingly emboldened and violent since the Hamas attacks.

巴勒斯坦人報告稱，以色列軍隊最近對約旦河西岸難民營的襲擊已造成 6 人死亡

巴勒斯坦衛生部週三宣布，以色列人最近在被佔領的約旦河西岸難民營進行的一次襲擊導致六名巴勒斯坦人死亡。

據報道，這些傷亡恰好是自10月7日加薩戰爭爆發以來該地區最新的暴力事件。

以色列軍方表示，其部隊連夜在努爾沙姆斯難民營進行「反恐活動」。 軍方表示，其飛機擊中了「向部隊投擲爆炸裝置的恐怖分子」。 無法獨立核實軍方的說法。

自從哈馬斯 10 月 7 日從加沙發動恐怖襲擊以來，以色列軍隊幾乎每天都在被佔領的約旦河西岸進行襲擊，以色列官員稱這次襲擊造成約 1,200 人死亡。 作為回應，以色列當局嚴格限制西岸境內的行動，並撤銷了在以色列工作的該地區巴勒斯坦居民的工作許可。

以色列將其對約旦河西岸的攻擊描述為針對加薩哈馬斯戰爭的延伸，並稱約旦河西岸的一些地區一直是恐怖活動的據點。 這些行動也導致逮捕人數激增，許多被拘留者未經指控或審判就被關押。

自10 月7 日以來，已有超過280 名巴勒斯坦人在約旦河西岸被殺，其中大部分是被以色列軍隊殺害，但也有在與武裝以色列定居者的衝突中被殺。巴勒斯坦人稱，自哈馬自從斯襲擊以來，這些定居者變得越來越大膽和暴力。
