Ankara: Jordan's foreign minister warned Wednesday of grave consequences from an ongoing Israeli military operation in the West Bank city of Jenin. At least ten Palestinians were killed and 40 others injured in the Israeli attack that began on Tuesday in Jenin in the northern West Bank.

According to Anadolu Agency, the situation in the West Bank is seen as grave and may destabilize the region's security, as stated by Jordan's Foreign Minister, Ayman Safadi, during a session at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. He emphasized that his country is working to prevent an explosion of the situation in the occupied territory.

An Israeli military statement reported that the operation in Jenin, code-named "Iron Wall," is expected to last several days. Tension has been running high across the occupied West Bank due to Israel's ongoing conflict in the Gaza Strip. Reports indicate that at least 47,000 victims have been killed, mostly women and children, and more than 110,700 injured since Oct. 7, 2023.

Furthermore, at least 870 Palestinians have been killed and over 6,700 injured by Israeli army fire in the occupied territory, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry. A ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement took effect in Gaza on Jan. 19, suspending the Israeli military operations in the Palestinian enclave.

In a related development, the International Court of Justice declared in July that Israel's decades-long occupation of Palestinian land is illegal and demanded the evacuation of all settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
