The length and frequency of the raids has pulled into focus Israel’s tactics in the West Bank, where nearly 3 million Palestinians live under a decades-long occupation and Palestinians view the military’s presence as a humiliation and a threat.Israeli troops have regularly operated across the West Bank since Israel captured the territory in 1967.
