The Department for the Investigation of Police has launched a criminal investigation into Border Police officers who shot two militants in Jenin after they allegedly surrendered. The incident occurred during a targeted operation against Islamic Jihad infrastructure, with forces surrounding a building where two senior wanted individuals were hiding. After a prolonged standoff and partial building collapse, the militants emerged and were shot, with officers claiming the suspects tried to flee and posed an immediate threat. The event has sparked controversy due to video footage, with some alleging biased editing and inconsistencies in the media coverage. An accelerated field investigation is underway, overseen by the military's chief of staff.
