Israeli forces have initiated a prolonged operation in the Qalandia refugee camp north of Jerusalem, according to reports from the field. The operation is directed at what the military describes as a significant terror organization in the camp, following intelligence information. The move comes amid a broader wave of Arab terror in Judea and Samaria and East Jerusalem, which commentator Hillel Bitton Rosen said is at its peak. As The Zioneer reported, the camp was the site of an overnight raid by Israeli forces in late June, and a separate foiled terror plot involving a tunnel and weapons cache near Jerusalem was uncovered at the end of June. No details on the scope of the current operation, arrests, or casualties have been released yet.
