Israeli occupation continues its aggression on the city of Tulkarm and its two camps for the 32nd consecutive day

The occupation forces continue their aggression on the city of Tulkarm and its camp for the 32nd consecutive day, and on the Nour Shams camp for the 19th day, amid widespread destruction of infrastructure and property, and human suffering.


The occupation forces sent military reinforcements to the city and towards the Tulkarm and Nour Shams camps, and patrolled the streets and alleys and positioned themselves along the Nablus Street linking the two camps, while they continue to seize residential buildings on the aforementioned street and turn them into military barracks and deploy snipers inside them.


The occupation forces also deployed infantry squads in the neighborhoods of Tulkarm and Nour Shams camps and prevented entry or exit from them, while reconnaissance aircraft flew at low altitudes. They raided homes, including empty ones, and vandalized and destroyed their contents, while seizing other homes and turning them into military barracks.


Eyewitnesses reported that the occupation forces raided the houses in the schools neighborhood in Nour Shams camp last night, and informed the residents to leave in the morning, after subjecting them to interrogation.


Dozens of citizens headed to their homes in Nour Shams camp, accompanied by relief teams from the Palestinian Red Crescent Society and Civil Defense, after the occupation gave them three hours to evacuate the contents of their homes, after notifying them of its intention to demolish 11 homes in the coming days, under the pretext of paving a road extending from the camp square towards Al-Manshiya neighborhood. The Red Crescent Society crews worked to evacuate families who were still in their homes and ensured their safe exit, while it later announced that it had received dozens of distress calls from families stuck in Jabal Al-Nasr neighborhood in Nour Shams camp, and were facing difficulty in reaching them, due to the dangerous situation and the area being besieged by the occupation forces.


The occupation forces caused complete destruction to the infrastructure in the Tulkarm and Nour Shams camps, affecting the electricity, water, sewage and communications networks, and razed more streets and roads, in addition to completely and partially destroying properties, including homes and shops, as a result of demolition, bombing and burning.


The ongoing aggression also led to the displacement of approximately 12,000 citizens from Tulkarm camp and more than 5,000 citizens from Nour Shams camp.


Amidst the continued tight siege on the two camps, appeals continue from citizens who are still in their homes and living in difficult and harsh conditions, to secure the arrival of their basic needs of food, water, medicine and baby milk, in addition to securing the exit of children to receive their vaccinations outside the camp, at a time when the occupation forces prevent entry into or exit from them, and hinder the work of relief crews while they are trying to deliver the necessary food supplies to them.


The occupation forces continue to close the gate of the Jabara checkpoint at the southern entrance to the city of Tulkarm for the 20th consecutive day, isolating the city from the villages and towns of Al-Kafriyat and the rest of the West Bank governorates.
