Footage released to Twitter by military correspondent Itay Blumental shows one minute of combat footage recorded during a raid on an explosives workshop in Nablus.

At approximately 1 a.m. last night, members of a joint taskforce from the IDF, Shin Bet security service and anti-terror forces raided an explosives workshop in Nablus, Israel. During the raid 31-year-old Wadee al-Houh, leader of the Nablus based Lion’s Den terror group, was killed. Four other gunmen were also reported dead during the raid, which sparked intense clashes between Palestinians and IDF troops trying to exfiltrate at the conclusion of the raid.

Nablus has been the target of several IDF operations in the past few weeks as the Israelis have been specifically targeting the Lion's Den terror organization. The Lion's Den group is allegedly responsible for a string of attacks on military positions, settlements and other targets, which drew the attention of the IDF, law enforcement and counter-terror organizations throughout Israel.

Another 20 individuals were injured in the hours following the raid on the explosives factory which was destroyed by the IDF. “During the operation, dozens of Palestinians burned tires and threw stones at troops,” the army said, citing that there were several instances in which the IDF troops were forced to return fire on civilian gunmen who were firing on their vehicles. One of the injured individuals was shot while hurling a firebomb at an IDF armored vehicle.

No IDF troops were injured during the operation. The Palestinian Ministry of Health has identified the individuals killed during the operation as Hamdi Ramzy, 30, Ali Antar, 26, Hamdi Sharaf, 35, Wadee al-Houh, 31, and Mishaal Baghdadi, 27.
