At least 10 Palestinians are dead after Israeli troops entered a major Palestinian city in the occupied West Bank in a rare daytime arrest operation.

The raid, which reduced a building to rubble and left a series of shops riddled with bullets on Wednesday, is one of the bloodiest battles in nearly a year of fighting.
