17 Palestinian homes razed as Israel escalates West Bank demolition campaign

The Israeli military launched a destructive operation in the Nour Shams refugee camp in the northern occupied West Bank, razing 17 Palestinian homes in its second such assault within a week.  

Eyewitnesses reported that Israeli bulldozers and heavy demolition equipment moved into the camp, east of Tulkarm, early on Thursday, systematically destroying residential buildings.  

This latest act of aggression is part of a broader military campaign targeting West Bank refugee camps, which began 45 days ago in Jenin and has persisted in Tulkarm for 39 consecutive days.

The ongoing incursion into Nour Shams has now entered its 26th day.
