(PJ Media) Israel launched a massive strike on West Bank targets on Tuesday, hitting “Islamic-Iranian terrorist infrastructure” and claiming that Iran was working to establish an “eastern front” against Israel,” according to CNN.
“We must deal with the threat just as we deal with the terrorist infrastructure in Gaza, including the temporary evacuation of Palestinian residents and whatever steps are required,” Foreign Minister Israel Katz wrote on social media. “This is a war for all terms and purposes and we must win it.”
IDF spokesperson Lt. Col. Nadav Shoshani said in a briefing that Israel had identified “a systematic strategy in Iran” of smuggling weapons and explosives into the West Bank.
“Specifically, about Jenin and Tulkarm, we’ve seen over 150 shooting and explosive attacks originated from these areas alone over the past year,” Shoshani said on Wednesday.
