The IDF is continuing the ‘Iron Wall’ operation in the Jenin camp, which began at the end of an operation by the security mechanisms of the Palestinian Authority against the militants in the camp. The IDF, the Shin Bet and the Israel Defense Forces reported that 10 terrorists were eliminated in the last day, and “many explosive devices” were destroyed. Defense Minister Israel Katz: “The operation will be a change in the IDF’s perception of security in Judea and Samaria. A powerful operation to eliminate terrorists and the terrorist infrastructure in the camp – without the recurrence of terrorism into the camp once the operation is over – a first lesson from the method of repeated raids in Gaza.”
The White House announced that the Houthis will be designated as a foreign terrorist organization. It was also reported that “the policy of the United States is to cooperate with its partners in the region to eliminate the capabilities of the Houthis in Yemen.” The order signed by President Donald Trump also states that the United States will work to stop the funding sources of the Houthis.
