Israeli occupation forces begin demolishing homes in Nour Shams camp, east of Tulkarm.

Today, Monday, Israeli bulldozers began demolishing a number of residential buildings in the Al-Manshiya neighborhood in the Nour Shams camp, east of Tulkarm.


Local sources said that the occupation forces deployed a heavy D10 bulldozer to the camp this afternoon, and began demolishing homes and destroying their surroundings, as the aggression continues for the 86th consecutive day.


She added that last night, the occupation forces informed five families whose homes are threatened with demolition—Abu Harb, Al-Alajma, Abdullah, and Shehada—that they must evacuate their homes, which comprise 15 residential units, between 8:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m., in preparation for their demolition.


This escalation came after the occupation forces notified, last Thursday evening, the demolition of 106 buildings and homes in the two camps, including (58) buildings in Tulkarm camp, and (48) homes in Nour Shams camp.


Since the early hours of this morning, occupation forces have detained a number of camp residents who were heading home to retrieve their personal belongings, despite having obtained prior coordination to enter. They also detained Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) personnel who were present to support the residents, after the team's director refused a physical search by occupation soldiers, citing the absence of female soldiers.


The ongoing aggression has forced the displacement of more than 4,200 families from the Tulkarm and Nur Shams camps, comprising over 25,000 residents. It has also completely destroyed 396 homes and partially destroyed 2,573 others, in addition to blocking their entrances and alleys with earth mounds.
