TULKARM, September 12, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation forces on Friday pressed on with their aggression against the Tulkarm governorate in the northern occupied West Bank, according to WAFA correspondent.
She said that the occupation forces continued their offensive against the governorate, storming residential buildings and apartments and launching a large-scale mass campaign of arbitrary detention among Palestinian civilians.
As part of the aggression, the occupation forces stormed civilians’ houses in the southern neighborhood of the city near Al-Qassam Mosque, ransacking them and interrogating occupants. They turned several buildings, including one belonging to the Salman family, into military outposts.
Another Israeli army unit raided civilians’ houses in the Jabal al-Sayyid area in the eastern suburb of Dhannaba, carrying out extensive searches and vandalism before arresting dozens of citizens. The detainees were marched in single file toward Nablus Street in the direction of as-Salam neighborhood, each with their hands placed on the shoulders of the person in front of them. They were interrogated and released afterwards.
The occupying forces also deployed vehicles and infantry units along Nablus Street, adjacent to Tulkarm refugee camp, as well as in the vicinity of Al-Murabitin Mosque in the western neighborhood, and in the Izzbat al-Jarad neighborhood. They conducted sweeps, broke into and searched houses, and restricted movement in those areas.
Meanwhile, military bulldozers demolished several agricultural greenhouses in the Dhannaba neighborhood. They blocked part of Nablus Street with concrete blocks.
On Thursday, the occupation forces began a crackdown on the city after two Israeli soldiers were injured when their military vehicle was hit by an IED.
