Occupied al-Quds - Saba:
Zionist enemy forces began carrying out on Tuesday afternoon extensive demolitions of Palestinian homes in the city of Tulkarm, as part of a systematic displacement policy targeting camps in the northern occupied West Bank.
Palestinian media outlets reported, citing eyewitnesses, that Zionist enemy bulldozers stormed al-Manshiyya neighborhood and began demolishing multi-story residential homes, after the army allowed some families to evacuate their personal belongings.
This escalation comes a day after the demolition of other homes in the camp, as part of a broader campaign announced by the Zionist army. This campaign includes 106 buildings in the Tulkarm and Nur Shams camps, which were previously identified on maps submitted to the Palestinian authorities.
Nihad al-Shawish, head of the camp's popular committee, said that what is happening is an ongoing aggression targeting the infrastructure and preventing the return of displaced persons, with the aim of obliterating the camp's landmarks, a living witness to the 1948 Nakba.
He added that the demolitions are a crime against humanity and a flagrant violation of international law, emphasizing that the Palestinian people are facing a new Nakba on its 77th anniversary, but they will not give up their right of return.
This escalation coincides with the ongoing military aggression launched by the Zionist enemy in the West Bank since January 2025, which began in Jenin and later extended to Tulkarm, causing widespread destruction and heavy human losses.
According to Palestinian data, attacks by the Zionist enemy and settlers in the West Bank have resulted in the deaths of more than 960 Palestinians, the injury of approximately 7,000 others, and the arrest of more than 16,400 citizens since the beginning of the escalation.
