An Israeli airstrike on a residential area in the Nur Shams refugee camp in Tulkarm, in the occupied West Bank, led to the martyrdom of at least five Palestinians on Monday night, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported. 

The aggression marks yet another aspect of the Israeli regime's war on Palestinians, be it in the Gaza Strip or the occupied West Bank.

Local media identified the martyrs as Jibril Jibril, Muhannad al-Qarawi, Mohammad al-Sheikh Yousef, Adnan Aysar al-Jaber, and Mohammad Alyan. 

Martyr Jibril was freed by the Resistance from Israeli prisons in late 2023 after it conducted a prisoner exchange deal with the Israeli regime. 

Tulkarm has seen multiple incursions and confrontations that have lasted for days since October 7, 2023. The governorate's youth and natives have insisted on supporting their copatriots in the Gaza Strip. 

Despite Israeli policies of "maximum pressure" on Tulkarm and other governorates in the West Bank, Palestinians have continued to resist Israeli incursions and have conducted multiple successful operations in the occupied territory. 

It is also worth noting that another Palestinian, Khalil Salem Ziada, was martyred after being shot at by illegal Israeli settlers who invaded the West Bank town of Wadi Rahhal, in Beit Lahm.

Palestinian Resistance factions promise, call for escalation

Early on Tuesday, Palestinian Resistance factions condemned the atrocious airstrike on the Nur Shams refugee camp, blaming Arab states' complacency for what they described to be acts of genocide against Palestinian people in both the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. 

"The escalation of crimes by the Israeli entity and its settlers in the occupied West Bank over the past few hours is a decision for an undeclared open war against our Palestinian people," the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) said in a statement following the airstrike and the attacks on Wadi Rahhal. 

The movement said that today's events show that the Israeli regime has shifted its war machine from the Gaza Strip to the occupied West Bank. 

Echoing the remarks of the PIJ, the al-Mujahideen movement said that Monday's airstrike is evidence that the Israeli occupation is launching a genocidal war that targets the entirety of the Palestinian people across all regions and communities. 

Moreover, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) stressed that the airstrike coincides with the "complete collusion by the international system, along with the support and partnership of the United States" with the Israeli regime. 

The three Palestinian political movements underlined Arab states' complicity in Israeli crimes, saying that this has allowed the Israeli occupation to carry out such aggressive actions against the Palestinian people. 

Meanwhile, the Islamic Resistance Movement - Hamas, mourned the five martyrs who were killed in Nur Shams, reaffirming that the event will lead to an "intensification" of acts of resistance.
