The Israeli occupation forces have launched a devastating crackdown in the West Bank, particularly in the cities of Tulkarm and Nablus, causing widespread destruction and chaos.
According to media reports, the occupation forces have been conducting aggressive raids in the Tulkarm refugee camp for the second consecutive day, leaving a trail of devastation in their wake. Bulldozers have swept through the camp’s streets and alleys, deliberately destroying infrastructure, homes, shops, and vehicles, resulting in water and electricity outages, as well as disruptions to internet and communication networks.

The occupation forces have also set fire to the home of a detainee in the Shuhada neighborhood, after carrying out bombing operations in the area and burning the tarpaulins covering the streets.
Eyewitnesses report that the occupation forces have deployed more vehicles to the camp, which they have placed under a tight siege, amid the sounds of explosions and gunfire, and the constant presence of reconnaissance aircraft flying low overhead. The forces have prevented residents, including children and patients, from leaving the camp to access their daily needs, prompting appeals for help from the local population.
In a separate incident, the occupation forces stormed the town of Bal’a, east of Tulkarm, and took up positions in the eastern neighborhood, where they remain stationed.
The situation has not been limited to Tulkarm, as the occupation forces have also carried out extensive demolition of infrastructure and facilities in the Nour Shams refugee camp, east of Nablus. Bulldozers have destroyed a number of shops and buildings along Nablus Street, near the camp’s entrances.
The occupation’s aggression has also claimed lives, with the national action factions, institutions, and activities of Tulkarm Governorate mourning the eight martyrs, including women, children, and young people, who were killed by the occupation’s bullets and drone strikes.
In a related development, two citizens were injured, and four others were arrested during the occupation forces’ storming of the city of Nablus and the Balata refugee camp. The occupation soldiers fired live ammunition, leading to the injuries, and also raided and searched several homes, arresting three young men.
Furthermore, a young boy from the town of Tamoun, south of Tubas, succumbed to his injuries after being targeted by an occupation drone during the forces’ incursion into the town.
The occupation’s assault on the West Bank has not been limited to military operations, as settlers have also carried out attacks. In Jericho, settlers burned two sheep pens belonging to the Arab al-Malihat community, while in Nahalin, west of Bethlehem, the occupation forces demolished a park owned by a local citizen.

Last night, settlers attacked the Arab Malihat gathering, northwest of the city of Jericho, and threw stones at a citizen’s home.
In the same context, the Israeli occupation forces demolished a commercial facility east of Qalqilya today, Wednesday. Local sources reported that a large force of the occupation army, accompanied by bulldozers, stormed the village of Nabi Elias east of Qalqilya, and demolished a commercial barrack (a car garage) belonging to citizen Mustafa Al-Shawfani.
