Israeli Special Forces Eliminate 3 Terrorists in Jenin Hospital Raid

Israeli counterterrorism forces foiled a terror attack inspired by the October 7 massacre, targeting a cell hiding and planning the attack from the Ibn Sina hospital in Jenin, the West Bank. Hamas terrorist Mohammad Jalamna, along with two fellow terrorists, was killed during the operation. The terrorists had been using the hospital as a secret base of operations and were planning an infiltration attack. Hamas leadership abroad had direct communications with Jalamna, who was responsible for transferring weaponry and ammunition to Hamas terrorists across the West Bank for shooting attacks targeting Israelis.
