Ramallah: At least 18 Palestinians were killed and many others wounded in an Israeli airstrike targeting the Tulkarm refugee camp in the northern West Bank on Thursday, the Palestinian Ministry of Health said in a brief statement.

Israeli warplanes launched a raid on a cafe in the al-Hamam neighborhood in the Tulkarm camp, Palestinian security sources said. Faisal Salama, coordinator of the Palestinian factions in Tulkarm, told Xinhua that there were a large number of casualties.

The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said in a brief statement on Thursday that as part of a joint IDF and Israeli Security Agency operation, the Israeli Air Force conducted a strike in Tulkarm.

Rising tensions and increasing armed clashes were seen in various cities, villages, and refugee camps across the West Bank following the outbreak of the Gaza conflict last October.
