During the raids on Sunday and into Monday, genocidal State of Israel has sent tanks to the West Bank city of Jenin, in the first deployment of its kind in the area in more than two decades, as troops intensify operations. The Israeli tanks were not driving to West Bank since the Second Intifada in 2002. Numerous videos of these tanks has been released.
