Israeli forces launched drone strikes in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin for the second time in less than two weeks yesterday, as part of an operation that set off a gunbattle that has forced at least 3,000 to flee their homes from the city's refugee camp.

At least 10 Palestinians have been killed in the deadly incursion, where gunfire and explosions were heard overnight. Palestinians have expressed that the ongoing raid in Jenin is the worst in two decades, and Israeli forces have warned of homes being "shelled".

The death toll is likely to rise as Israel continues its attacks on the refugee camp.
