Local sources reported that Israeli forces informed residents that they were required to evacuate their homes, amid the continued military deployment around the camp.
In the Jabal al-Salehin area around Nur Shams camp, Israeli bulldozers began extensive land leveling after Israeli forces sent military reinforcements to the area this morning, including several military vehicles and heavy bulldozers.
