Israeli military continues assault on Jenin, Tulkarem refugee camps
The Israeli military has sent reinforcements to the Jenin refugee camp in the occupied West Bank over recent hours, Al Jazeera Arabic reports.
Our colleagues report that Israeli forces are bulldozing and destroying parts of the camp, with entry prohibited and iron gates installed, as part of an ongoing “counterterrorism” operation in the area that has continued into its 102nd consecutive day.
The Jenin refugee camp, once a hotbed of Palestinian armed resistance, has been almost entirely emptied of its residents over recent months, with dozens of people killed in the process.
The Israeli military has also continued its assault on the Tulkarem refugee camp for the 96th consecutive day, according to Al Jazeera Arabic.
Security camera captures Israeli settler attack on Palestinian herders in occupied West Bank
Israeli human rights group B’Tselem has shared chilling security camera footage of Israeli settlers – some armed with what appear to be assault rifles – raiding the tent encampment of the Palestinian Abu Sief family in the Nablus area of the occupied West Bank.
In the video clip, about 10 masked settlers arrive in a white pick-up truck with a large Israeli flag and three all-terrain vehicles (ATVs). The pick-up rams a car belonging to the Palestinian family, and the settlers then set about stealing the family’s flock of sheep, smashing solar panels and windows, puncturing the tyres of a tractor, destroying and setting fire to tent tarps.
The attack took place on Wednesday night in the presence of guards from a nearby illegal Israeli settlement outpost, who arrived at the scene of the attack in a security ATV with red and blue emergency lights flashing.
Palestinian “community members tried to call the police, but no officers arrived”, B’Tselem said in a post on social media about the attack.
“Settler violence is state violence,” the group said.
On Wednesday, 30 April 2025, at around 10:20 P.M., about ten masked settlers, some of them armed, arrived in a white pickup truck and three ATVs at the tent encampment of the Abu Seif family, one of several Palestinian shepherding hamlets in south a-Nassariyah in the Hamrah area… pic.twitter.com/PfE9cEO7X6
