The Israeli occupation forces have launched a relentless military campaign across the West Bank, subjecting Palestinian refugee camps to widespread destruction, siege, and ongoing displacement.

In the past week, the occupation forces have intensified their attacks, particularly in the cities of Nablus and Jenin.

In contrast, the Palestinian resistance announced its confrontation with the occupation, targeting its forces in Askar camp east of Nablus.

At the same time, the resistance announced that it had carried out an ambush against an occupation infantry force in Tulkarm camp.

The situation in Jenin has escalated further, with an Israeli drone striking the camp and killing 25 Palestinians so far, according to the camp's media committee.

The committee also reported the displacement of 20,000 Palestinians due to the ongoing assault, which has left hundreds of homes and facilities completely or partially destroyed.

Siege, Arrests, and Humanitarian Crisis The Israeli aggression has also extended to other West Bank camps, including Tulkarm, Nour Shams, and Fara'a, where the occupation forces have imposed a crippling siege, carried out raids, and arrested dozens of Palestinians.

These actions have led to the forced displacement of an estimated 40,000 people, according to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA).

UNRWA Facilities Desecrated Adding to the humanitarian crisis, the Israeli occupation forces have also disregarded the sanctity of United Nations facilities.

UNRWA revealed that on February 12, the Israeli troops stormed and used one of its health centers in the Al-Arroub camp near Bethlehem as a place of detention, a blatant violation of international law.

Demographic Changes and Permanent Military Presence The relentless Israeli assault on the West Bank refugee camps appears to be part of a broader strategy to tighten control over the region.

The occupation forces have reportedly been studying the establishment of permanent military sites in the Jenin camp, a move that reflects a concerning trend to alter the geography and demographics of these Palestinian communities.
