Today, Friday, the Israeli occupation forces continue to force citizens to evacuate their homes in Tulkarm camp, in light of the unprecedented escalation of aggression witnessed by the city and its camp.

Eyewitnesses reported that the occupation forces forced families to leave their homes at gunpoint, specifically in the Al-Nadi and Al-Shuhada neighborhoods, which caused a state of panic and fear, especially among children and women.

Eyewitnesses added that these operations were accompanied by the destruction of the contents of homes and the bombing of a number of them, as the occupation uses eviction as a means to terrorize and pressure citizens, under the pretext of searching for wanted persons.

This escalation, which has been ongoing for five days, comes amidst difficult humanitarian conditions in the camp, where residents are suffering from the interruption of basic services such as water, electricity and communications due to the targeting of the infrastructure by the occupation bulldozers, and a severe shortage of food, medical supplies, drinking water and baby milk.

The Palestinian Red Crescent crews in Tulkarm continue to evacuate citizens from the club area in the camp, after they received evacuation orders from the occupation.

The association said that the ambulance crews have so far evacuated a number of patients, while the association's disaster management team has evacuated 150 citizens.

In turn, Tulkarm Governor Abdullah Kamil said that the Red Crescent Society crews, in order to relieve the citizens, began distributing food parcels, bread, and basic needs of water and medicine inside Tulkarm camp, which has been subjected to the occupation’s aggression for the fifth consecutive day.

Governor Kamil added in a press statement: "There is a comprehensive and major aggression against Tulkarm Governorate, which includes systematic destruction of infrastructure in a number of locations throughout the city, re-destruction of what was previously rehabilitated in Tulkarm camp, and forcing hundreds of families from the camp to be forcibly displaced from their homes."

He explained that the Dignity and Relief Committee, in cooperation with all the governorate’s institutions, activities and volunteers, is working to support the families who were displaced from the camp as a result of this aggression, in addition to the tremendous efforts of the Health Emergency Committee and all the teams working in the field.

Kamil renewed his call to the international community and human rights institutions to stop this aggression, directing an invitation to our people in the remaining governorates and the lands of 1948 to stand by Tulkarm Governorate in view of the difficult situation and the necessity of helping to secure the needs of the families and households affected by this invasion.
