  • IOF kill three Palestinians as Resistance confronts West Bank assault

The Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas, on Wednesday, mourned the martyrs of Tubas who were killed in an exchange of fire with Israeli occupation forces after refusing to surrender following the siege of a house in the al-Far’a refugee camp in the occupied West Bank.

The martyrs were identified as: Youssef Tayeh, Mohammad Baria, and Youssef al-Asmar.

Al Mayadeen’s correspondent earlier reported that three Palestinians were killed in the al-Far’a refugee camp, south of Tubas in the northern West Bank, noting that Israeli forces had withheld their bodies.

Earlier, confrontations erupted between Palestinian Resistance fighters and Israeli occupation forces who stormed the camp, besieged a house, and targeted it with Energa anti-tank grenades. In response, Resistance fighters targeted the occupation forces with an explosive device.  

Meanwhile, in Nablus, the Palestinian Red Crescent reported that a 15-year-old boy was injured by Israeli gunfire in the town of Beita, which was stormed by Israeli forces amid confrontations with Palestinian youths.  

Confrontations also broke out between Palestinian youths and Israeli forces during a raid on the village of Tell in Nablus, where occupation troops stormed Palestinian homes.

'Israel's' West Bank aggression triggers unprecedented displacement

In their largest operation since launching its assault on the northern occupied West Bank, Israeli occupation forces began demolishing 16 homes in the Tulkarm refugee camp on Tuesday.

The Tulkarm governorate reported that the number of displaced residents from the Tulkarm and Nur Shams camps is estimated to be between 15,000 and 16,000 since the start of the assault on the northern West Bank more than 20 days ago.

"Israel" has intensified its offensive on Tulkarm and Nur Shams camps, carrying out further destruction of roads and infrastructure while demolishing, detonating, and setting homes ablaze.

Tens of thousands of Palestinians have fled the West Bank following "Israel's" aggression targeting the northern sector of the territory, leading to the largest wave of displacement in the territory since 1967.

More than 40,000 Palestinians have fled from their homes, according to UNRWA, as "Israel" pushes its operations deeper than ever in the West Bank, targeting the Tulkarm, Jenin, and Nur Shams refugee camps, with some of them being forced to leave their houses by the Israeli occupation forces.

"This is our Nakba," said Abed Sabbagh, cited by AP, who fled the Nur Shams camp in his car with his seven children on February 9, invoking the memory of the 1948 Nakba (catastrophe), when over 750,000 Palestinians were forcibly displaced from their cities by Zionist forces.

"This is unprecedented. When you add to this the destruction of infrastructure, we’re reaching a point where the camps are becoming uninhabitable," the director of West Bank affairs in UNRWA told The Associated Press.

Experts are saying that the Israeli occupation forces' tactics are the same as the ones deployed in Gaza, as "Israel's" far-right raises its calls for the "annexation" of the West Bank.

"The idea of ‘cleansing’ the land of Palestinians is more popular today than ever before," Yagil Levy, the head of the Institute for the Study of Civil-Military Relations at Britain’s Open University told AP.
