TUBAS, February 5, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation forces Wednesday evening blew up a mosque in Tammun town, south of the occupied northern West Bank city of Tubas, according to local sources.
They said that the occupying forces blew up the door of Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman Mosque as they continued to conduct house-to-house raids in the town.
They added that the occupation soldiers continued to forcibly displace more families from their houses, which they turned into military outposts.
The gun-toting soldiers also detained several residents of the town, held others, and interrogated them.
The occupation forces have continued a massive onslaught on Tammun town and al-Faraa refugee camp for the fourth consecutive day, maintaining a tight siege and causing a shortage of water, and a lack of essential supplies such as infant formula, diapers, and medicine.
They deliberately plowed through infrastructure, destroying main water pipelines, leading to a water shortage and causing a power outage in parts of the town and the camp.
The onslaught comes as the occupation forces continue to wage large-scale aggressions on Jenin city and camp as well as on the city and the refugee camp of Tulkarm.
This comes as the occupation forces tightened military measures across the occupied West Bank hours after the release of 90 Palestinian prisoners as part of the Gaza ceasefire went into effect, dismembering and isolating cities and governorates one from the other using military gates, barriers, and concrete blocks.
The Israeli military measures are in parallel with ongoing attacks by Israeli colonists across the West Bank to terrorize Palestinians and displace them from their lands to seize them and build illegal Jewish colonies that separate Palestinian communities.
Closures besides to other measures, taken under the guise of security, are intended to entrench Israel’s 58-year-old military occupation of the West Bank and its settler colonial project which it enforces with routine and frequently deadly violence against Palestinians.
