Context :

For the past seven days, Israeli military bulldozers have been conducting large-scale demolitions in Jenin, Tulkarem, and Tubas, leaving these areas uninhabitable. Roads, water, and electricity infrastructure are being destroyed, forcing Palestinian families to flee their homes. Journalists covering the destruction are being targeted. Military raids and arrests continue across the West Bank, particularly in northern cities like Jenin, Tulkarem, and Tubas, as well as Hebron in the south. The entire West Bank, following Gaza, has now been declared a military war zone. Over 3 million of the 5.4 million Palestinians live in the West Bank, while more than 2 million endure the situation in Gaza.

According to official records, 689 Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank in the past seven months, while over 40,000 have been killed in Gaza. The Israeli government has long been demolishing Palestinian homes and seizing land to expand settlements. Jewish settlers, under Israeli military protection, are being relocated to these seized properties. The number of Jewish settlers in the West Bank, including 200,000 in East Jerusalem, has reached 500,000. While Gaza faces a massacre, the invasion and annexation process in the West Bank accelerates.

In Jenin, a major military offensive is underway, with hundreds of troops, armored vehicles, fighter jets, and drones raiding the city, Tubas, Tulkarem, and other areas. Tactics from previous Israeli military operations, such as those used in 2002, are being repeated: killings, arrests, home demolitions, destruction of civilian infrastructure, and attacks on hospitals.
