Tel Aviv, (Samajweekly) Four Palestinians were killed in the West Bank in an Israeli air raid, Palestinian officials said on Friday.
The militant factions have identified that two of the deceased belonged to their camp.
Israel police have kept a strong tab on the Palestinians who are reaching the Al Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem for prayers. Heavy deployment of Israeli police was seen at the mosque, who even fired tear gas when Palestinians reached there for prayers.
The Al-Aqsa mosque has been a major flash point in Jerusalem and this is the third consecutive week after the October 7 massacre wherein the Israeli police have prevented people from praying inside the mosque.
Meanwhile, three people were injured in the Jaffa area of Tel Aviv when a missile hit a building.
There were several instances of long sirens blazing in Tel Aviv, indicating people should move to the shelters. With missiles being launched at Tel Aviv, the IDF is likely to step up the ground offensive in Gaza Strip soon for which troop deployment has almost been completed.
