Israeli occupation continues its aggression on the city of Tulkarm and its camp and sends more military reinforcements
The Israeli occupation forces continued their repressive practices in the city of Tulkarm and its camp, targeting citizens and their property, during their ongoing aggression for the 13th consecutive day.
According to local sources, the occupation forces sent more military reinforcements, especially infantry soldiers, towards the city and Tulkarm camp, and deployed in the streets and neighborhoods, amidst the restrictions on citizens and obstructing their movement, in a scene that has been repeated daily since the beginning of the aggression.
The occupation forces pursued citizens in the city center, forced a number of shops to close their doors, deployed their vehicles in the streets and obstructed the movement of vehicles. They also raided a number of homes in the eastern neighborhood of the city, specifically in the Diab and Al-Maslakh neighborhoods, searched them and destroyed their contents, checked the identities of their residents, and seized surveillance camera recordings.
The occupation soldiers deployed on foot along Nablus Street adjacent to the entrances to Tulkarm camp, amid searches in agricultural lands and between homes and facilities, while they seized a residential building in the area and turned it into a military barracks and sniper positions.
The occupation forces continued their siege of the Martyr Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital, as occupation soldiers are stationed at the hospital’s entrances, obstructing the work of ambulances and medical crews, while they continue to seize the surrounding commercial buildings.
In Tulkarm camp, the occupation forces are still deployed in large numbers in all its neighborhoods and alleys. They have also continued to raid homes, most of which have become empty and destroyed after their residents were displaced from them. They have also seized tall buildings and turned them into military barracks and places for sniping and firing live ammunition randomly.
The occupation forces continued to displace the remaining citizens from their homes, especially on the outskirts of the camp, and forced them to leave for the city, while reconnaissance planes flew over Tulkarm and its camps at a low altitude.
The situation of citizens who are still in their homes, including the elderly, the sick, women and children, has worsened due to the severe shortage of food, medical supplies, drinking water and baby milk.
Today, the Civil Defense, Police, and Palestinian Red Crescent Society teams were able to enter the camp and provide aid as part of a campaign to support and assist the steadfast families in the camps, and to secure the necessary needs of the affected families, including food, medicine, and drinking water.
Tulkarm camp is experiencing extremely difficult humanitarian conditions, after the occupation completely and partially destroyed homes and shops, blew up a number of them and burned others, coinciding with the complete destruction of the infrastructure, which led to the interruption of water, electricity, communications and the Internet, and it has become difficult for specialized crews from the municipality and others to reach it to repair it, because the occupation forces prevented them.
