JENIN, March 3, 2025 (WAFA) – The Israeli occupation continues its aggression on the city of Jenin and its refugee camp for the 42nd consecutive day, resulting in 27 people killed, dozens injured and extensive destruction of infrastructure and properties.

Last night, a three-month-old infant suffocated from the tear gas fired by the occupation forces at the entrance to Jenin refugee camp.

The occupation forces continue to block all entrances to Jenin refugee camp with dirt mounds, forcing citizens attempting to reach their homes to turn back. Meanwhile, Israeli bulldozers and military vehicles remain stationed around the camp, and reinforcements are continuously being deployed to the surrounding areas.

The Israeli soldiers withdrew from the Al-Rabee building near Jenin refugee camp, leaving behind massive destruction in the residential apartments they had used as military outposts for 41 days. After the withdrawal, the soldiers repositioned themselves at other locations near the camp.

So far, the occupation has forced nearly twenty thousand citizens to leave the camp, dispersing them across 39 towns and villages. The occupation is also attempting to alter the camp’s landscape through systematic destruction, which has caused complete destruction to 120 homes and partially damage to dozens of others.

Additionally, the occupation has executed 336 raids, conducted numerous field interrogations and subjected residents to comprehensive searches. Furthermore, drone strikes have carried out approximately 15 bombing operations.

The occupation continues to send military reinforcements to the outskirts of Jenin refugee camp, while also maintaining its military vehicles' presence in front of the Jenin Governmental Hospital. Israeli tanks are positioned near the camp, and the forces are preventing both local and international journalists from entering the camp to document the widespread destruction and ongoing violations against its citizens.
