The Israeli occupation military expands the scope of bombardment on the camp amid deteriorating humanitarian conditions.
The Israeli aggression continues on the city and camp of Jenin in the occupied West Bank for the second consecutive day as Palestinian Resistance fighters continue to repel the IOF incursion.
In the meantime, the Palestinian Ministry of Health announced that the number of martyrs of the aggression rose to 10, as the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) announced that it had received the body of a new martyr recovered earlier from Horsh Al-Saada area in Jenin.
PRCS confirmed that its medical teams dealt with 103 injuries in the field yesterday, indicating that the occupation forces prevented ambulances from reaching the locations of the injured.
On its part, the Palestinian Prisoners Information Office stated that the occupation forces arrested about 120 Palestinians from the city and camp of Jenin since the start of the aggression.
The city of Jenin witnessed continued violent confrontations throughout Monday night as the Israeli occupation forces deployed reinforcements in attempts to break the Resistance lines of defense.
On early Tuesday, the Israeli air force renewed its bombing of new targets in Jenin as its ground forces stormed the city’s neighborhoods, leaving behind a trail of heavy destruction in infrastructure, cars, and homes.
The Israeli military also enforced a seige on the camp and closed down all land routes leading to it by checkpoints.
Al-Quds Brigades – Jenin Brigade – announced that its fighter confronted the occupation forces on the outskirts of the camp using heavy fire and explosives.
While the occupation claims that the aggression aims to “target the infrastructure used by the Resistance and arrest its members in Jenin,” its warplanes and drones continued to bomb civilian properties.
Jenin deputy mayor Mohammed Jarrar confirmed that the occupation forces deliberately demolished the homes in the camp, after forcing a number of the residents out.
Jarrar warned that the extent of the destruction is large, adding that Palestinian residents complained about the lack of water and power outages.
Scenes of the people of Jenin went viral on social media as users expressed outrage at what they described as a new Nakba.
Many Palestinians were forcefully displaced by the Israeli occupation while others fled their homes as the scope of bombardment on the camp expanded and IOF made some advancements within residential areas.
The PRCS reported that the occupation forced about 3,000 Palestinians out of the camp.
On the other hand, footage of the Resistance fighters defending the camp went viral on social media platforms.
Resistance members used homemade roadside IEDs to target Israeli military vehicles, in addition to tactical ambushes bringing intruding IOF under heavy fire.
Fearing responses to the aggression on the camp, the occupation deployed Iron Dome systems in the south and north of occupied Palestine in anticipation of rocket launches.
Palestinian villages and cities witnessed angry protests and solidarity activities with the people of Jenin, calling on the international community to take immediate action to stop the aggression.
For their part, the Palestinian Resistance factions condemned the Israeli aggression on Jenin, determined to move forward in confronting the occupation, stressing that the response options are wide and comprehensive.
Arab countries, as well as organizations and institutions, issued statements denouncing the aggression and its crimes against civilians, calling for “international accountability for the occupation.”
