TULKAREM, January 27, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli bulldozers caused on Monday evening extensive damage to infrastructure and private property in the center of Tulkarem in the northern occupied West Bank.
WAFA correspondent reported that the bulldozers destroyed the area surrounding Jamal Abdel-Nasser Roundabout in the heart of the city, along with the main water network. The demolition also extended to sidewalks and entrances to businesses in the area.
Additionally, the bulldozers damaged several vehicles parked along the sidewalks, particularly near the entrance to the Martyr Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital, which has been under a tight siege by Israeli military vehicles.
In another development, Israeli bulldozers continued to demolish and damage infrastructure in the Al-Muqataa neighborhood at the western entrance to the Tulkarem refugee camp, amid a tight siege on the camp and the deployment of snipers in the surrounding area.
The Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) reported that its crews transported a 24-year-old man who was shot in the foot by live ammunition in Tulkarem. According to PRCS, Israeli forces stopped the ambulance, detained the medical team and forced them to take the injured young man to the military checkpoint west of the city.
The injury of the young man brought the total number of Palestinians injured in Israel’s onslaught on Tulkarem today to six.
Earlier this evening, a young man was also shot and injured in the thigh by Israeli forces' gunfire in the Tulkarem refugee camp.
Earlier today, two Palestinians were killed and four others were injured in an Israeli drone shelling that targeted a vehicle at the entrance to the Nur Shams refugee camp east of Tulkarem.
