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.

Israel's major military operation in the Jenin refugee camp, in the occupied West Bank, forced hundreds to flee their homes on Thursday. The Israeli operation entered its third day, despite the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas in Gaza having come into effect earlier this week.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the assault on Jenin would be “extensive and significant,” as the military erected new checkpoints across the West Bank.
