Israeli occupation continues its aggression on Tulkarm and its camp for the 59th day.

The Israeli occupation forces continue their aggression on the city of Tulkarm and its camp for the 59th consecutive day, and on the Nur Shams camp for the 46th day, amid ongoing military escalation, massive reinforcements, forced displacement of residents, and arrests.


Local sources reported that the occupation forces have escalated their military aggression against the city of Tulkarm and its two camps, sending large reinforcements of vehicles and bulldozers to the Tulkarm and Nur Shams camps, amid a tight siege.


In the same context, the occupation forces arrested a number of citizens at dawn today, after raiding their homes in the city and its suburbs. Among them were identified as: Fares Amer Fares, Ahmed Iyad Abu Salah from the eastern neighborhood of the city, Suhaib Marouf from the Dhnaba suburb, and Qasim Sultan Alaria from the Iktaba suburb. This included extensive raids and searches of homes, and the destruction of their contents.


In Tulkarm camp, the occupation forces forcibly displaced the remaining families in the Al-Hadaida and Al-Raba'a neighborhoods, after forcibly evicting them from their homes. This comes as part of the escalating wave of displacement witnessed in the neighborhoods on the outskirts of the camp, amid ongoing restrictions that are strangling the residents, specifically the Al-Hadaida, Al-Matar, Al-Raba'a, Qaqun, and Marbat Hanoun neighborhoods.


In Nour Shams camp, the occupation has reinforced its military presence by deploying heavy machinery and bulldozers to Jabal al-Nasr, amidst a tight siege of the camp. The occupation has also seized dozens of homes, converting them into military barracks after forcibly displacing residents.


As part of the ongoing aggression, the occupation continues to seize 10 residential buildings in the traffic circle area of the northern neighborhood adjacent to Nablus Street, which contain dozens of apartments. The buildings were forcibly evacuated from their residents and converted into military barracks, in addition to transforming the area into a closed military zone.


Meanwhile, the occupation forces intensified their military presence on Nablus Street, closing off parts of it with earth mounds, amid measures restricting vehicle movement by setting up flying checkpoints from time to time, stopping and searching vehicles, and detaining their passengers for extended periods after checking their IDs.


Israeli occupation forces also stormed the town of Ramin, east of Tulkarm, at dawn, deploying infantry units in the town and its plains. They also dispatched additional military reinforcements from the Anab checkpoint, conducting searches and combing operations in the area, but no arrests were reported.


The ongoing escalation by the occupation forces in the city of Tulkarm and its two camps has resulted in the martyrdom of 13 citizens, including a child and two women, one of whom was eight months pregnant. Dozens have also been injured and arrested, and more than 4,000 families have been forcibly displaced from the Tulkarm and Nur Shams camps, along with dozens of families from the city's northern neighborhood.


The aggression also caused widespread destruction to the infrastructure, including homes, shops, and vehicles, which were completely and partially demolished, burned, vandalized, looted, and stolen. 396 homes were completely destroyed and 2,573 partially destroyed in the Tulkarm and Nur Shams camps, in addition to the closure of their entrances and alleys with earth mounds.
