Israeli forces killed 18 Palestinians on Thursday after bombing a coffee shop in the occupied West Bank using fighter jets, in the first such attack since the Second Intifada during the early 2000s.
Here’s what we know:
• A source within the Palestinian security services told AFP this was the deadliest single attack in the occupied West Bank since 2000
• “We condemn the Tulkarm camp massacre and hold the occupation government fully responsible for its repercussions,” the Palestinian Authority’s presidency office said in a statement
• Hamas and the Islamic Jihad movements also condemned the “massacre” calling it a “dangerous escalation”
• The Israeli army confirmed the strike and said it was a joint operation carried out by the Shin Bet internal security service and the air force
• National and Islamic committees across the West Bank called for a general strike on Friday in protest against the attack
