Airstrikes, conventional military operation illegal in West Bank 

It is worth noting that as an occupying force, the Israeli regime has no right to use conventional military methods in the West Bank.

According to the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OCHA), the Israeli regime's use of military force in the occupied territory is being deployed in a manner that "violates international law."

The office further stated that what is occurring in the West Bank does "not constitute an armed conflict," and that the "use of force in the West Bank must comply with human rights norms and standards applicable to law enforcement."

It explained that the use of airstrikes and other military weapons and tactics "violates these standards and is resulting in extrajudicial executions and other unlawful killings and destruction of Palestinian homes and infrastructure."

Palestinian Resistance factions condemn unprecedented strike on Tulkarm

Meanwhile, Palestinian Resistance factions, including Hamas, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), and the al-Mujahideen Movement, condemned the Israeli strike on Tulkarm, describing it as a "gruesome massacre."

Hamas said that the strike on a cafe in Tulkarm which killed and injured women and children is a "dangerous [Israeli] escalation." The movement said that the action comes in line with the Israeli regime's war on the Palestinian people in the West Bank. 

Al-Mujahideen movement echoed Hamas' remarks, saying that such attacks constitute am open-ended war on the Palestinian people and the Lebanese people, who are also subjected to a wide-scale Israeli aggression. 

On the other hand, the PFLP condemned the continued security coordination that the Palestinian Authority partakes in with the Israeli regime. 

It said that such actions constitute a crime against the Palestinian people and facilitate the genocidal war that targets them.

The front called for a united Palestinian front against the Israeli regime's war on Palestine.
