Israeli forces have withdrawn from Jenin and its camp after a 10-day “invasion”, the Palestine news agency said on Friday.
Twenty-one people were killed in the city and camp, the Palestinian health ministry said in a statement.
A Reuters witness said the Israeli forces left behind extensive damage to infrastructure.
In a statement on Facebook, the Palestinian foreign ministry accused Israel of transferring to the occupied West Bank its brutal destruction and devastation in the Gaza Strip, as evidenced by the situation in the cities of Jenin and Tulkarm, and the refugee camps there.
Israel launched a massive offensive across the northern West Bank on August 28, fighting Palestinian militants and leaving widespread destruction.
Israel has occupied the West Bank since 1967, and the military has ramped up its deadly raids in the territory since its war in Gaza against Hamas militants erupted on October 7.
