JENIN, May 6, 2025 (WAFA) – The Israeli occupation forces continue their aggression against the city of Jenin and its camp for the 107th consecutive day, expanding their bulldozing and destruction operations inside the camp, aiming to alter its features and structure, while continuing to prevent access to it.
In the Ya'bad plain to the south, occupation forces conducted bulldozing operations in the area between the settlements of Hermesh and Dotan.
Villages in the Jenin Governorate are witnessing almost daily incursions as the aggression against the city and camp continues. Daily military movements are recorded in most villages of the governorate, along with a constant presence of occupation patrols and vehicles.
The occupation forces also continue to completely close off Jenin Camp and prevent access to it, while continuing to bulldoze and destroy it inside, aiming to alter its structure and features.
According to estimates by the Jenin Municipality, approximately 600 homes have been completely demolished in the camp, while the rest have been partially damaged and rendered uninhabitable. Meanwhile, the occupation forces continue to fire live ammunition intensively in the camp.
The aggression also caused significant damage to facilities, homes, and infrastructure in Jenin, particularly in the eastern neighborhood and the Al-Hadaf neighborhood.
The occupying forces continue to send additional military reinforcements toward the camp and its surrounding areas, while infantry units are deployed daily in several neighborhoods.
Families from the camp, along with hundreds of families from the city and its surrounding areas, remain forcibly displaced. The Jenin Municipality indicates that the number of displaced persons from the camp and the city has exceeded 22,000.
The economic situation in Jenin is deteriorating further, with heavy commercial losses recorded as a result of the aggression. This has led to the closure of many shops and a decline in shopping traffic entering the city from outside. Furthermore, the bulldozing and destruction of infrastructure and streets has also resulted in the damage to a large number of shops, particularly in the western neighborhoods, which are experiencing near-total economic paralysis.
Yesterday, occupation forces arrested two young men from the western town of Yamoun.
They also raided the towns of Yamoun, Sila al-Harithiya, and Rummana, combing their streets and deploying their vehicles in their neighborhoods. Since the start of the assault on the city and camp on January 21, 40 people have been killed, along with dozens more injured and detained.
