Tulkarm – Saba:
Israeli enemy forces continued their escalating aggression on the city of Tulkarm in occupied Palestine and its camp on Saturday for the 146th consecutive day, and for the 133rd day on Nur Shams camp.
For the second day in a row, the enemy forces escalated their aggression against a number of towns north and east of the Tulkarm governorate, amid ongoing demolition operations and a tightening of the military siege.
The official Palestinian News Agency reported that three Israeli enemy military bulldozers continued to demolish more residential buildings in Nur Shams camp, specifically in al-Manshiya and al-Shuhada neighborhoods, bringing the number of buildings demolished in the camp over the past few weeks to more than 20.
Over the past fourteen days, Tulkarm camp has witnessed the demolition of more than 50 buildings, leaving widespread destruction and creating large holes and gaps in the neighborhoods of Balawneh, al-Akasha, al-Nadi, al-Sawalmeh, al-Hammam, and al-Madaris, and their surroundings.
This escalation comes as part of the implementation of the enemy's plan announced last May, which calls for the demolition of 106 buildings in Tulkarm and Nur Shams camps. These include 58 buildings in Tulkarm camp alone, containing more than 250 housing units and dozens of commercial establishments, and 48 buildings in Nur Shams, under the pretext of "opening roads and changing the geographical features of the two camps."
The enemy forces continue to impose a tight siege on the two camps and their surroundings, with infantry units and military vehicles deployed in alleys and entrances, preventing residents from reaching their homes, and opening fire on anyone who attempts to approach.
In the same context, the enemy forces sent additional military reinforcements to the city, amid intense military movements along Market Street, Thabet Thabet Hospital Street, Nablus Street, and the northern neighborhood. They deliberately obstructed the movement of Palestinian civilians and vehicles, blaring provocative horns and driving against traffic.
The Israeli enemy continues to transform Nablus Street into a military barracks by seizing residential buildings and homes in the northern neighborhood opposite Tulkarm refugee camp, some of which have been under its control for more than four months. They deployed bulldozers and heavy machinery in their vicinity.
At the same time, the Israeli enemy continues its aggression against the towns of Bal'a, Attil, Deir al-Ghusun, and Zeita. Meanwhile, the town of Anabta is witnessing intense military movements in its neighborhoods and surrounding areas. Israeli forces have seized several homes, turning them into military outposts after forcibly expelling their residents. They have also sealed off the entrances and streets of these towns with barricades, isolating them and exacerbating the suffering of the residents.
Local sources reported to Wafa that Israeli enemy forces raided and searched homes, vandalized their contents, and interrogated residents. They deployed infantry forces in the streets, preventing citizens from moving freely.
The sources also reported that Israeli enemy forces deliberately played songs over loudspeakers from inside one of the seized homes in the town of Attil, a provocative act that angered residents.
The ongoing aggression has so far resulted in the deaths of 13 civilians, including a child and two women, one of whom was eight months pregnant. It has also resulted in dozens of injuries and arrests, as well as widespread destruction of infrastructure, homes, shops, and vehicles.
According to the latest data, this escalation has displaced more than 5,000 families from the two camps, representing over 25,000 citizens. At least 400 homes have been completely destroyed, and 2,573 homes have been partially damaged. The entrances remain closed, transforming the two camps into almost lifeless areas.
