Israeli forces have demolished 100 buildings in Jenin, according to reports from Israeli media on Sunday. The large-scale destruction is part of the ongoing military operation in the occupied West Bank, which has resulted in extensive damage to infrastructure and mass displacement.

Israeli reports described the demolition campaign in Jenin as "the first of its kind", noting that it was carried out under the direction of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Security Minister Israel Katz.

Massive explosions rock Jenin Refugee Camp

Palestinian media documented the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) detonated multiple buildings in the Jenin refugee camp on Sunday. According to local sources, around 20 buildings in the eastern part of the camp were rigged with explosives and detonated simultaneously, with loud explosions heard across the city and surrounding areas.

Dr. Wisam Bakr, director of Jenin Governmental Hospital, confirmed to WAFA news agency that some hospital sections sustained damage from the blasts, though no injuries were recorded.
