This Saturday afternoon, Israeli occupation forces deployed their military vehicles along the main streets of Tulkarm, erected flying checkpoints, and impeded the movement of citizens and vehicles.

On the street leading to the Shuweika suburb north of Tulkarm, between the Al-Ja'roun roundabout and the Al-Mega roundabout, occupation forces stopped a vehicle and arrested a young man inside, despite an attempt by a woman in the same vehicle to prevent the occupation forces from arresting him. The identity of the arrested young man remains unknown.

During the arrest, occupation soldiers tore up a picture of martyr Salah al-Badou, disrupted traffic in and out of Shuweika and the city, stopped dozens of vehicles, and began searching them and checking passengers' IDs, while firing sound bombs to intimidate residents.

In a related development, Israeli occupation forces set up another checkpoint on Nablus Street, opposite Tulkarm refugee camp, coinciding with a raid on the "Fawal Al-Sham" restaurant, which has been subjected to repeated raids in the past. The employees were subjected to field investigations, while vehicles passing through the area were searched, their IDs and cell phones checked, and they were prevented from passing.

In Tulkarm camp, eyewitnesses reported that occupation forces raided a number of homes in the al-Raba'a neighborhood and began destroying residents' property, while simultaneously evacuating the camp of its residents who were forcibly displaced.

This escalation comes amid ongoing Israeli aggression on Tulkarm and its two camps for the 69th consecutive day, amid escalating violations against civilians and property.
