An arrest operation in the Palestinian city of Jenin Thursday morning resulted in the death of a Palestinian operative and the slight injury of an IDF soldier. IDF forces arrested two other operatives. The injured soldier received medical attention at a local hospital. IDF soldiers, Shin Bet operatives and Border Police participated in the operation.

Wednesday, in a separate operation in the Palestinian city of Nablus, IDF forces located and destroyed a laboratory used by terrorists to manufacture explosives.

These two cities remain hotspots for Palestinian terror operations, especially for the Palestinian Islamic Jihad and associated groups. In early July 2023, the IDF entered Jenin for a multi-day operation to destroy terrorist assets and arrest terrorists.

Please pray for restored and continued deterrence in Jenin and Nablus. Please pray for healing for the injured soldier. Lastly, please continue to pray for safety for all Israeli forces (and also civilians) working around the clock to protect the Jewish State from her enemies.
