Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani on Saturday urged countries and international institutions to prevent the recurrence of Israel's "war crimes" in the West Bank.

Kanaani made the remarks in a post on social media platform X in response to the Israeli military's withdrawal from the northern West Bank cities of Jenin and Tulkarm, as well as their refugee camps, after days of military operations.

"The footage of insane destruction of all the urban and services infrastructure of the Gaza Strip and now those of some northern parts of the West Bank, in particular in Jenin and Tulkarm, indicates that the Israeli regime ... is pursuing the strategy of scorched earth," he said.

The international community is "morally, humanly and legally duty-bound" to prevent the recurrence of such "war crimes," he added.

Since last week, Israel has conducted a large-scale raid across the northern West Bank, stating that the operation aims to prevent future attacks against Israel.

The Palestinian Health Ministry reported on Thursday that Israeli military operations across the West Bank had resulted in 39 Palestinian deaths and 145 injuries since August 28.
