Israeli aggression on Jenin ongoing

This comes as the Israeli occupation continues its aggression against the city and camp of Jenin in the occupied West Bank, for the second day in a row, while Palestinian Resistance fighters bravely confront Israeli occupation forces with barrages of bullets and detonating explosive devices.

PRCS confirmed that its medical teams dealt with 120 injuries in the field so far, 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.

Israeli occupation air force renewed its shelling of sites in Jenin on Tuesday morning, as occupation forces stormed the city's neighborhoods, amid massive destruction as a result of the brutal aggression. 

The Israeli military also enforced a siege on the camp and closed down all land routes leading to it by checkpoints.

Al-Quds Brigades - Jenin Brigade - announced that its fighters confronted the occupation forces on the outskirts of the camp using heavy fire and explosives.

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.
