Israeli occupation forces continue their aggression against the city of Tulkarm and its camp for the 171st consecutive day, and for the 158th day against Nur Shams Camp, amid an unprecedented escalation in demolition and bulldozing operations in the occupied West Bank.

The ongoing escalation has resulted in the forced displacement of more than 5,000 families from the two camps—amounting to over 25,000 citizens—and the complete destruction of more than 600 homes, in addition to 2,573 homes that were partially damaged. The entrances to the camps remain blocked with earth mounds, turning them into areas devoid of life.

So far, the continued aggression has led to the martyrdom of 14 citizens, including a child and two women, as well as dozens of injuries and arrests. There has also been widespread destruction affecting infrastructure, homes, commercial shops, and vehicles.
