TL;DR Summary

Israeli undercover agents conducted a raid in Jenin, West Bank, killing two Palestinian militants and at least 16 civilians, including a 14-year-old boy named Omar Awadin. The raid was carried out by Yamam, the elite unit of Israel’s border police that focuses on counterterrorism operations, including raids in civilian areas. The raid appeared to violate an international ban on extrajudicial killings, experts consulted by The Post said, arguing that the illegality was magnified by the fact that the militants appeared to pose no imminent threat, coupled with the presence of so many civilians.
