Israeli forces on Wednesday raided a Palestinian refugee camp next to Jerusalem where tensions have been growing as residents fear eviction, the military and local leaders said.
AFP journalists saw about a dozen armoured military jeeps going into the Qalandia camp, which Israeli soldiers did not allow press or residents to enter, in the occupied West Bank.
“Security forces are operating in the Qalandia camp area in order to thwart terror and apprehend wanted individuals,” a military official told AFP.
