Israeli occupation continues its aggression on Jenin and its camp for the 38th day
The Israeli occupation continues its aggression on the city of Jenin and its camp for the thirty-eighth consecutive day, leaving 27 dead, dozens of injuries, and widespread destruction of infrastructure and property.
Jenin Governor Kamal Abu al-Rab said that the ongoing occupation aggression has led to heavy losses amounting to 20 million shekels per day, especially with the continued closure of the Jalameh military checkpoint in front of our people from within the 1948 territories, noting that the fate of about 6,000 students studying at the Arab American University is unknown, in light of the occupation’s continued prevention of them from reaching the university, in addition to preventing workers from going to their places of work.
He added that the occupation is trying to completely change the features of the camp, as it has carried out digging operations 3 meters deep in the ground, with the aim of building towers around Jenin camp.
He pointed out that since the first day of its aggression, the occupation has sought to change the map of the camp by creating new streets in it and expanding other streets, in addition to demolishing entire neighborhoods in it.
Abu al-Rab pointed out that the occupation's forcing of the residents of Jenin camp to leave and evacuate it is a prelude to its remaining for a long time inside the camp.
This morning, the occupation forces took measurements of the house of the martyr Islam Khamisa in preparation for its demolition.
Last night, the occupation forces attacked a number of young men in the vicinity of Yahya Ayyash roundabout in the city of Jenin, while the occupation forces pushed Eitan armored vehicles to the vicinity of the camp. They also continued to push their reinforcements accompanied by bulldozers to the camp, amidst the flight of warplanes, and bulldozed the vicinity of the Martyrs' Cemetery in the camp.
The occupation continued its movements with tanks on the outskirts of Jenin camp, specifically in the Al-Jairiyat neighborhood, near the Al-Assir Mosque, and other neighborhoods of the camp.
The UNRWA Commissioner-General said in a press statement yesterday, Wednesday, that the West Bank has become a battlefield after the occupation killed 50 citizens in five weeks.
He added that the West Bank is witnessing serious repercussions of the Gaza war, and that citizens are the first to suffer from these repercussions, calling for an immediate end to the occupation's aggression.
The occupation continues to burn homes inside Jenin camp, bulldoze roads and expand other roads. The occupation soldiers also continue to prevent and pursue citizens who are trying to reach their homes inside it to take their necessary supplies such as clothes and blankets, especially in light of the cold weather conditions and the approach of the holy month of Ramadan.
The displaced people are facing great difficulties as they continue to be displaced from their homes for the 38th day, as the residents fear that they will remain outside their homes throughout the holy month of Ramadan.
The occupation prevents local and international press crews from entering the camp to monitor the destruction and devastation inside it, and to cover the occupation’s practices against the citizens.
The occupation also continues to seize a number of citizens' homes and turn them into military barracks, especially in buildings close to and overlooking Jenin camp. Water is also cut off from a number of the city's neighborhoods due to the occupation's bulldozing of roads and water networks, and the difficulty of crews working to restore them with the continued presence of the occupation.
