Israeli occupation sends military reinforcements to Tulkarm and tightens its siege on the city and its camps

Today, Sunday, the Israeli occupation forces sent more military reinforcements to the city of Tulkarm and its two camps, as the aggression against it continues for the fourteenth consecutive day.


In Tulkarm city, the occupation soldiers deployed in the eastern and southern neighborhoods, stopped citizens, especially young men, checked their IDs and interrogated them in the field, while drones flew at a low altitude, causing a state of fear among the citizens. They also tightened their siege on the eastern neighborhood, specifically on Al-Muqata'a Street, amid appeals from the residents to provide them with food aid.


The occupation forces continued their siege of the Martyr Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital, deployed their vehicles and infantry soldiers at its entrances, obstructed the work of ambulances and medical crews, placed barriers on the hospital street and prevented vehicles from passing. The occupation soldiers were seen at the emergency entrance forcing a young man to take off his clothes under the pretext of searching him.


The occupation forces are still imposing their siege on Tulkarm camp, seizing houses and buildings in all its neighborhoods, and deploying infantry soldiers in them. They have also continued to seize a number of houses in its vicinity and turn them into military barracks and sniper locations.


The daily suffering of the citizens who are still in their homes on the outskirts of the camp is exacerbated by the tight siege and the accompanying interruption of electricity, water, communications and the Internet due to the complete destruction of the infrastructure, in addition to the severe shortage of food, drinking water and medicines, especially for the elderly who suffer from chronic diseases.


The occupation bulldozers destroyed Nablus Street, which connects Nour Shams camp to the town of Anabta, passing through Bal’a roundabout east of the governorate, in conjunction with the bulldozing and destruction of the infrastructure at the entrances to Nour Shams camp and in its neighborhoods, specifically the Manshiyya and Qalansawe neighborhoods.


Also, the occupation forces are still imposing a tight siege on Nour Shams camp, preventing citizens from leaving it, while firing live bullets at everything that moves, with the sound of explosions being heard.


The occupation forces raided citizens' homes in the Jabal al-Nasr and Jabal al-Salihin neighborhoods, turning them into military barracks, and detained women and children.


This morning, citizen Sundus Jamal Muhammad Shalabi (23 years old) and her fetus were killed, as she was eight months pregnant, while her husband was critically injured in the head. Citizen Rahaf Fouad Abdullah Al-Ashqar (21 years old) was also killed, and her father was injured by a live bullet in the thigh while they were at home in the camp, while seven citizens were injured by the occupation’s bullets, including a child (14 years old).


In the same context, the occupation forces continued for the second day to close the Jabara Bridge at the southern entrance to the city of Tulkarm, which connects the city to the villages of Al-Kafriyat and the governorates of the West Bank.
