Israeli forces appear to have withdrawn from three refugee camps in the occupied West Bank, after a more than weeklong military operation that has left dozens dead and a trail of destruction

JENIN REFUGEE CAMP, West Bank (AP) — Israeli forces appeared to have withdrawn from three refugee camps in the occupied West Bank by Friday morning, after a more than weeklong military operation that left dozens dead and a trail of destruction.

Israeli soldiers shot and killed an American woman participating in an anti-settlement protest elsewhere in the West Bank, a witness said, The White House said it was “deeply distrubed” by the killing of the woman, identified as Aysenur Ezgi Eygi, a 26-year-old who also held Turkish citizenship, and it called on Israel to investigate what happened.

The military's raids in the three refugee camps, involving hundreds of troops, have been the deadliest operation in the territory since the Israel-Hamas war began.

Overnight, Israeli armored personnel carriers were seen leaving the Jenin refugee camp from a checkpoint set up on one of the main roads. An Associated Press reporter inside the camp saw no evidence of any remaining troops inside as dawn broke Friday.
