Islamic Jihad claims of thwarting Israeli incursion in West Bank

The Tulkarem Battalion of the Quds Brigades, the armed wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad based in the occupied West Bank, announced that it had thwarted the infiltration of “a foot infantry force of 10 [Israeli] soldiers while trying to position itself inside a house in the Manshiyya axis in Nur Shams camp”. The armed Palestinian group added: “We subjected the force to a field of fire and direct bullets from zero distance, and achieved confirmed hits. We continue to engage with the rescue and support forces.”
