TULKARM, January 28, 2025 (WAFA) - The Israeli occupation forces continue the aggression on the city of Tulkarm and its camp for the second day in a row, imposing a tight siege, and causing widespread destruction of citizens' property and infrastructure.
WAFA correspondent said that the occupation forces pushed more of their vehicles towards the city and its camp, which they imposed a tight siege on, amidst bulldozing and destruction, with continuous and intensive flights of reconnaissance aircraft at low altitudes.
She added that the occupation forces forced dozens of families in the camp to leave their homes late last night, under threat of arms, specifically from the airport and Hanoun square neighborhoods, and not to return to them for a week, while seizing a number of tall buildings, and turning them into military barracks, and places for their snipers inside the camp and its surroundings.
The occupation bulldozers destroyed the infrastructure in a number of the camp's neighborhoods, specifically Al-Balawneh, Al-Wakala, and schools, affecting the water, electricity, sewage, internet, homes, and shops networks, and burned down a house belonging to al-Shaheen family in Al-Wakala neighborhood.
These forces also bulldozed and destroyed the infrastructure in the city's streets, and were concentrated in Nablus Street at Zenobia School junction, the vicinity of Jamal Abdel Nasser Square, Al-Muqata'a Street in the eastern neighborhood, the street leading to the Martyr Thabet Governmental Hospital, and Khadouri Street in the western neighborhood.
The occupation bulldozers completely destroyed the stairs and entrance to the court complex at Al-Alimi Square, west of Tulkarm, while the destruction affected a number of citizens' vehicles parked on the sidewalks.
Meanwhile, the occupation snipers stationed in one of the residential buildings in the western neighborhood of the city targeted the electricity transformer in the area by firing live bullets at it, which led to a power outage in large parts of the city and its camp.
The occupation forces continue their siege of the Martyr Thabet Thabet Governmental Hospital and the Israa Specialized Hospital, and obstruct the work of ambulances and medical crews, while seizing a number of citizens' homes and turning them into military barracks in the western neighborhood of the city, amidst heavy and random gunfire, with the deployment of infantry squads around the western cemetery and Al-Nuzha Street in the area.
The occupation forces arrested the young man Jihad Al-Qazli from the Aktaba suburb east of Tulkarm, after assaulting him, and the citizen Samer Hosni Amin Al-Saad, from the city, after raiding and searching their homes.
Later, the occupation vehicles stormed the Jabal Al-Nasr area in the Nour Shams camp east of Tulkarm, and positioned themselves on its main axes.
