JENIN, November 11, 2025 (WAFA) – The Israeli occupation army continued closing the town of Ya'bad, south of Jenin, for the fourth consecutive day on Tuesday, turning homes into military barracks.

Ya'bad Mayor Amjad Atatra explained that the forces that stormed the town last Friday and closed its entrances are still stationed in some residents' homes after forcing them to evacuate. He added that movement in the town is clearly paralyzed due to the occupation's presence and the closure of entrances, forcing residents to use rough roads to enter and leave.

Atatra confirmed that some areas have experienced service disruptions due to the occupation, which is obstructing municipal crews from accessing the town to repair damage.

The Directorate of Education in southern Jenin announced that government schools in Ya'bad would switch to online learning on Tuesday to ensure the safety of students.
