Displaced Ayat Musa Maqsqas drowned in a sea of tears when she saw the pictures of her house that was completely burned by the occupation forces on Al-Madaris Street in Jenin camp, where the fire devoured its entire contents, and nothing remained of it. She said: “Our house is far from the main street and the heart of the camp, and no events took place there, and no one was present in it, so why this deliberate destruction and sabotage that turned our lives into hell?!”

The occupation forced the residents of Jenin camp to leave their homes on the third day of the siege and aggression on the city and camp of Jenin.

Citizen Umm Ali Maqsaqs told Al-Quds.com: “The occupation threatened to bomb and demolish our homes over our heads, and asked us to leave immediately, despite our patience and endurance of the tragic circumstances and the power and water cuts. We had no choice but to leave to avoid risking our lives.”

She added: "We were not able to take any clothes or belongings from our house. They did not give us a deadline. My husband, my four children and I left with our clothes on, to face the new catastrophe that we heard about from our grandparents and our families."

After a bitter journey of suffering, at the occupation points and inspections after forcing the displaced to leave the camp, "Umm Ali" arrived at her family's home in Jenin, watching the news and waiting in the hope of returning to the home that was built and founded with the hard work and fatigue of life for many years, and suddenly she experienced the shock of a lifetime, when activists on social media published a video clip showing her house burning.

She says, “We felt suffocated when they forced us to leave our homes and leave everything we had worked so hard to provide. We left with only our clothes on, and I spent my days in sadness and pain, hoping that the nightmare would end and we would return to our homes, as our souls and lives were there in the camp.”

She added: "I broke down crying and was in great shock when I saw the disaster that befell my house, which was completely burned. The soldiers stormed it, searched it and burned it for no reason. We did not even have any identification papers left, as the fire devoured everything."

Since the beginning of the aggression and the siege of the camp, the occupation forces have been storming homes and destroying their contents, then deliberately burning and blowing them up despite the displacement of their residents. She said: “We learned that the occupation forces burned my home even though there was no one in it. Within seconds, they destroyed the fatigue and hardship of a lifetime. Even after the end of the catastrophe, we do not know how we will live after they burned our home.” She added: “Before that black day, things were normal for us. We were patient and endured the pain of displacement. But after they burned our home, the real catastrophe occurred in our lives. They burned my heart and my life, and we had nothing left. What law or Sharia allows this injustice?”

She added: "The occupation wants to displace us and expel us from the camp, but this will not happen even in their dreams. These practices will increase our steadfastness and determination to return and rebuild what the occupation destroyed, and we will not live as displaced persons and refugees forever."

Three weeks later, the occupation is still demolishing, destroying and burning homes, shops and citizens’ property in Jenin camp.

According to local sources, the number of buildings and properties destroyed and burned by the occupation in Jenin camp exceeded 200 buildings.
