For 6th day in row, Israeli forces continue large-scale military onslaught on Tulkarm

01-02-2025 03:57 PM


Ammon News - For the sixth consecutive day, the Israeli occupation forces continue their aggression on the city of Tulkarm and its camp for the sixth consecutive day, causing great destruction to citizens' properties, homes, and infrastructure, which led to the forced displacement of dozens of families.

In the city of Tulkarm, foot patrols of the occupation army roamed the streets of the city, especially in the western, southern, and eastern neighborhoods, raided citizens' homes, searched them, checked their IDs, and turned several residential and commercial buildings into military points and deployed snipers on their rooftops.

Eyewitnesses reported that the occupation forces stationed in the commercial buildings launched intensive drones throughout the night in the vegetable market area, while infantry soldiers stormed the western cemetery and carried out combing operations inside and around it.

The occupation forces are carrying out search operations in the city's neighborhoods, setting up ambushes between trees, houses and in alleys, chasing citizens and vehicles and forcing them to return to their homes.

The occupation forces continue to besiege the Shahid Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital and the Israa Specialized Hospital, obstructing the work of ambulances and medical crews, subjecting them to searches, interrogating paramedics and detaining them.

In Tulkarm camp, the occupation forces continue to impose a tight siege on the camp, deploying their foot patrols in all its neighborhoods, and their snipers are on top of the tall buildings inside and around it.

The occupation forces continue to force citizens in the camp to leave their homes in the neighborhoods of Al-Nadi, Al-Shuhada, Al-Ghanem, Al-Matar and Abu Al-Foul.

They added that these operations included destroying the contents of homes, blowing up a number of them, demolishing them and burning them, as a means of intimidating and pressuring citizens, under the pretext of searching for wanted persons.

This escalation, which has been ongoing for six days, comes amid extremely difficult humanitarian conditions that have been exacerbated by the destruction of basic facilities and infrastructure in the camp by the occupation bulldozers, accompanied by power outages, water, communications and internet outages, and a shortage of food, medical supplies, drinking water and baby milk.

In addition, the efforts and initiatives of the Dignity and Relief Committee formed by Tulkarm Governor Abdullah Kamil continue to stand by the people of Tulkarm camp and support the families who were forced to leave their homes by the occupation.

Associations, centers and mosques in the city and its suburbs have received dozens of displaced people from the camp and those who were stranded and unable to reach their countries and villages. WAFA
