On February 24, 2025, Israel deployed tanks into the occupied West Bank for the first time in 20 years, targeting militant networks in Jenin. Defense Minister Israel Katz stated that forces would remain in some areas for up to a year, preventing 40,000 displaced Palestinians from returning. Palestinian officials condemned the action as a "dangerous escalation," urging international intervention. The United Nations expressed concern over the growing violence and humanitarian crisis. With tensions rising, global leaders fear further instability, while Israel defends its actions as necessary for security. Calls for diplomatic solutions continue amid the ongoing conflict.
