Violence continues in the Palestinian town of Jenin and its refugee camp after Israeli Defence Forces started an operation they claim is aimed at stopping terrorist activity in the area. The operation caused at least eight deaths and has been called the largest in twenty years, and was opposed by a local militant group called the Jenin Brigade. Israel claims a link with Iran - which the Iranian government denies.
