The Ministry of Education and Higher Education said that the Israeli occupation forces have been launching a fierce, aggressive attack on schools in the towns of Bruqin and Kafr ad-Dik, west of Salfit, since yesterday, Thursday.

The ministry reported on Friday that the occupation forces stormed the Al-Munjid private school in the town of Bruqin, and this morning raided the Martyr Mazen Abu Al-Wafa Elementary School for Boys in Kafr ad-Dik, while converting the Al-Salam Kindergarten building in Kafr ad-Dik into a military barracks.

She added that the occupation bulldozers began excavation and digging works near the Burqin Girls' Elementary School.

The ministry noted that these escalating violations against schools and educational personnel in the West Bank, including Jerusalem and Gaza, fall within the context of systematic colonial aggression.

She called on international, human rights, and education organizations to urgently intervene to put an end to these ongoing violations and hold the occupation accountable for its attacks on schools, universities, and educational institutions.
