Israeli army threatens military offensive in Nablus

The Israeli army on Thursday threatened a deadly military operation in the occupied West Bank city of Nablus.

According to witnesses, Israeli forces dropped leaflets on the Nablus refugee camp warning residents against attacks on troops in the area.

"The fate of your city is in your hands. Do not follow the path of the Jenin camp," the leaflet said.

The Israeli army has staged several military raids inside the Jenin refugee camp in the past few weeks, killing a dozen Palestinians and causing widespread destruction.
