00:00It's in Tubas, which is a town where the Israeli military had been, it was part of their raid
00:07two or three weeks ago now.
00:09And what we see is a return.
00:11We don't have many details.
00:13I do find this quite interesting.
00:15Most of the details I have actually from Palestinian sources.
00:18And what they say is that five members of one family were killed, the Sawafka family.
00:23I've seen pictures of four of them, four young men.
00:26And that's all we have really heard.
00:30We haven't heard a confirmation of their identities from the IDF, from Israel's military, which
00:35we usually do.
00:36We have heard a more general statement saying that they are operating in Tubas, which is
00:41a large village, I think you'd call it, in the northern West Bank, and that they were,
00:47they have hit, and I quote, an armed terrorist cell.
00:50So very little detail, but a sign that there is a continuing, what they call counter-terrorist
00:56operation.
00:57That is that Israeli troops work along with Israeli security services within the northern
01:02West Bank, arrests in Tubas, as far south as Bethlehem today as well.
