Israeli Occupation Forces Carry Out Mass Raids and Demolitions in West Bank

The Israeli occupation army intensified its military offensive in occupied Palestine's West Bank early Tuesday, launching a large-scale raid on the Old City of Nablus.

The Red Crescent's Ambulance and Emergency Center Director, Amjad Ahmad, reported that medical teams treated injuries sustained during the incursions across several neighborhoods, including Khan Market.

Meanwhile, the city's governor, Ghassan Daghlas, ordered the closure of all official institutions to protect civilians, affirming Palestinian resilience despite the intense incursions. Simultaneously, reports emerged of a new Zionist plan to demolish nearly 100 homes in the Jenin refugee camp within 72 hours. The occupation forces distributed maps identifying targeted buildings, marking a significant escalation following the demolition of over 66 homes in March. Local sources indicate that the ongoing offensive on Jenin camp over the past five months has caused varying degrees of damage to more than 600 homes and facilities. Over the past two days, Israeli occupation forces have arrested dozens of Palestinians holding West Bank IDs from various areas of Jerusalem, under the pretext of entering and being present in the city illegally.

The broader Israeli enemy's plan involves demolishing 106 buildings across Tulkarem and Nur Shams camps, including 58 structures in Tulkarem alone. These include over 250 residential units and dozens of commercial properties. This sustained assault has displaced over 5,000 families—more than 25,000 individuals—and resulted in the complete destruction of at least 400 homes, with partial damage to 2,573 others. Entrances to both camps remain sealed, turning them into near-abandoned zones.

Israeli Settlers Attack West Bank Village, Residents Say

Israeli settlers attacked the Palestinian village of Khirbet al-Marjam in the occupied West Bank on Thursday night, burning three houses and a number of cars in the latest in a series of raids that have surged during the war in Gaza. Local residents said settlers stormed through the village, firing live ammunition and hurling teargas bombs at people trying to put out the flames. CCTV footage showed masked individuals entering Palestinians' property, throwing objects around and destroying a security camera. "They climbed on top of the house and started to throw stones," resident Maysoom Msalam said. "They broke the door and the windows. Then they burnt this door and entered and set fire inside the house." The Israeli military said troops and police intervened to disperse a group of masked Israelis who had set property on fire. It said there had been an earlier report that Palestinians had attempted to steal a herd of animals belonging to Israelis. Ghassan Daghlas, governor of the nearby city of Nablus, dismissed suggestions that Palestinians had provoked the attack. "This is an attack aimed at expelling citizens from their lands by settlers, a project to displace Palestinians from their lands," he told Reuters. "Through this attack, the settlers are telling Palestinians, either you leave, or we will burn you. The situation is very difficult, the settlers are getting more violent." The attacks have come as Israeli ministers have been calling openly for a full annexation of the West Bank, a territory captured by Israel in the 1967 Middle East war, which Palestinians see as the core of a future independent state along with Gaza and East Jerusalem. According to figures from the United Nations humanitarian agency OCHA there were at least 1,580 attacks on Palestinians by Israeli settlers that resulted in casualties, property damage or both last year, and another 220 since the start of this year. In one of the biggest recent attacks, Bedouin families in the Jordan Valley, said bands of Israeli settlers stole hundreds of sheep and goats last week, having first accused the Bedouin of trying to steal their animals. Most countries consider Israeli settlements in the West Bank to be illegal, a position rejected by Israel, which cites the Jewish people's historical and Biblical connection to the land.
