RAMALLAH: The Israeli army said Sunday that it had killed several Palestinians in three air strikes the previous day in the occupied West Bank, where a new operation was underway around the village of Tamun. Eyewitnesses reported a “large” deployment of Israeli forces around Tubas and Tamun, the scene of recent violence. An AFP journalist said the army was blocking the exits of the nearby Faraa refugee camp and entering homes. Drones were also visible in the sky.
