Israeli forces escalate West Bank raids

Israeli forces have conducted new raids in the northern part of the occupied West Bank, shooting and firing tear gas at Palestinians.    

According to the Palestinian WAFA news agency, Israeli attacks took place at the city of Tulkarm, as well as the Nur Shams and Tulkarm refugee camps, and the town of Qusra in Nablus governorate.

The occupation forces bulldozed the streets in Tulkarm and destroyed the city's infrastructure, Press TV reported.

They also tightened their siege on the city's eastern neighborhood, preventing residents from leaving their homes, while detaining, interrogating and abusing them, and forcing shop owners to close their businesses.

At the Tulkarm camp, Israeli soldiers burned houses, including the one belonging to martyr Wassim Anbar.

Eyewitnesses told WAFA that the situation in the camp is becoming increasingly dire, with local Palestinians remaining in their homes amid a severe shortage of basic supplies such as food, water and medicines.

The regime forces, they added, chase anyone who leaves his home or tries to return to the camp, shoot at him, and direct drones to photograph him.
