The Israeli occupation forces continue their aggression on the city of Tulkarm and its camp for the 84th consecutive day, and on the 71st day on the Nur Shams camp, amidst an escalating situation on the ground, accompanied by gunfire, explosions, raids, vandalism, and attacks on citizens and their property.

Local sources reported that a huge explosion occurred at dawn today in Tulkarm camp, followed by a thick plume of smoke. The nature of the explosion has not been determined, due to the siege imposed by the occupation on the camp and its near-complete emptiness of residents after they were forcibly displaced from their homes.

Israeli bulldozers carried out additional razing of completely destroyed streets in Tulkarm camp, closing off the western entrance to the camp from the Muqata'a neighborhood with earth mounds. Meanwhile, Israeli forces continue to deploy throughout the camp's neighborhoods, seizing homes and blocking off many entrances with barbed wire.

Throughout last night, the Al-Mahjar neighborhood in Nour Shams refugee camp witnessed heavy gunfire by occupation forces, the storming of dozens of homes, and the vandalism of several civilian vehicles.

Local sources reported that Israeli occupation forces forced approximately 10 families from the Jabal al-Nasr area in Nour Shams camp and the area west of the camp to evacuate their homes, and threatened other families with eviction until Sunday, amid heavy gunfire aimed at terrorizing residents.

Meanwhile, the city witnessed a heavy deployment of military vehicles and infantry units last night, positioned around Gamal Abdel Nasser Square, Al-Haddadeen Street, and the eastern district, amid heavy firing of sound bombs at vehicles and civilians.

In the city center, occupation forces chased young men around Gamal Abdel Nasser Square, fired sound bombs intensively, and arrested a young man who was present at the scene, without being able to determine his identity.

In the eastern part of the city, occupation forces raided a number of shops and subjected those present to field interrogation.

Infantry forces and military vehicles also stormed the Dhnaba suburb and Harat al-Salam in the east of the city, raiding a number of homes, conducting extensive searches, and interrogating their owners.

Meanwhile, the occupation continues to seize homes and residential buildings on Nablus Street and the adjacent northern neighborhood, converting them into military barracks after forcibly evacuating residents. Meanwhile, its military vehicles and bulldozers are stationed in the vicinity.

The ongoing Israeli aggression and escalation against the city of Tulkarm and its two refugee camps resulted in the deaths of 13 civilians, including a child and two women, one of whom was eight months pregnant. Dozens more were injured and arrested.

It also resulted in the forced displacement of more than 4,000 families from the Tulkarm and Nur Shams camps, along with hundreds of citizens from the city's northern neighborhood after their homes were seized and a number of them converted into military barracks.

The aggression caused widespread destruction to 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 refugee camps, in addition to closing their entrances and alleys with earth mounds.
