The cross-border fire came after an Israeli raid on a refugee camp in the West Bank on Thursday (January 26) that killed at least nine Palestinians, including militant gunmen and at least two civilians, the highest single-day death toll in years.

The raid, the latest in a near-daily series of clashes in the West Bank over the past year, came days before U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken was due to visit Israel and the West Bank.
