The municipality of Jenin reported on Saturday that Israeli occupation forces have completely or partially destroyed approximately 600 homes, in addition to obliterating the infrastructure of Jenin refugee camp. The relentless assault has now entered its 68th consecutive day, leaving vast devastation in its wake.
Thousands Displaced in Tulkarm as Eid Approaches
Meanwhile, the Tulkarm Media Committee highlighted the dire humanitarian conditions resulting from the ongoing Israeli offensive. With over two months of continuous military operations in Tulkarm and its refugee camp—and 49 days in Nur Shams camp—more than 4,000 families remain displaced. As Eid Al-Fitr approaches, these families face severe hardship, unable to return to their homes.
Israeli media outlet Walla revealed that the Israeli occupation army has intensified its engineering operations in northern West Bank refugee camps. The army’s Central Command has reportedly decided to dismantle these camps as fortified strongholds, aiming to convert them into regular urban neighborhoods in Jenin and Tulkarm.
Forced Evictions and Expanding Military Presence
The Tulkarm Media Committee reported that Israeli occupation forces forcibly expelled more families from the Hadaida and Rabaia neighborhoods at gunpoint while seizing dozens of homes and converting them into military outposts. Since the beginning of the assault on Tulkarm and Nur Shams camps, nearly 3,000 homes have been destroyed to varying degrees, accompanied by systematic infrastructure destruction.
Israeli occupation forces also deployed additional reinforcements, including heavy machinery and bulldozers, into Nur Shams camp, tightening their siege while conducting raids and searches.
In the Tulkarm camp, troops carried out house-to-house incursions, destroying property and intensifying their military presence in alleyways.
Rising Death Toll and Humanitarian Crisis
The ongoing Israeli assault on Tulkarm and its refugee camps has resulted in the deaths of 13 Palestinians, including a child and two women—one of whom was eight months pregnant. Scores of others have been wounded or arrested, while thousands remain forcibly displaced.
The Jenin municipality stressed that the refugee camp is now uninhabitable, with essential infrastructure—water, electricity, sewage, and roads—reduced to rubble. According to the camp’s media committee, over 3,250 housing units have been rendered unlivable due to relentless Israeli bombardment.

Meanwhile, occupation forces maintain a suffocating blockade on Jenin, a city home to approximately 360,000 Palestinians, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis in both the city and the refugee camp.
Raids Extend to Hebron Region
In a separate development, Palestinian sources reported that Israeli occupation forces stormed the town of Sa’ir, north of Hebron, while also raiding the village of Jinba in Masafer Yatta, south of Hebron, earlier in the day.
