Jenin (UNA/WAFA) – The Israeli occupation forces continue their aggression on the city of Jenin and its camp for the sixteenth consecutive day, leaving 25 martyrs, dozens of injuries, arrests, the bombing of homes, a siege, forced displacement, and widespread destruction of infrastructure.
This evening, Tuesday, the rescue teams of the Jenin Civil Defense were able to evacuate an injured young man in the demolished building in the Al-Damj neighborhood in Jenin camp, despite the difficulty they endured due to the large amount of destruction in the camp’s streets, roads, and entrances.
The occupation forces arrested the young man Mahdi Tawalbeh from his home in Sabah Al-Khair housing in the city of Jenin, while they detained a young man in the vicinity of Al-Amal Hospital in the Al-Mahta neighborhood in the city of Jenin, assaulted him, and blindfolded him.
The occupation forces continue to besiege Jenin Governmental Hospital, after bulldozing its entrance and the main street leading to it.
According to the director of Jenin Governmental Hospital, Wissam Bakr, the hospital is now almost empty, except for some emergency cases that are able to reach it, due to the occupation’s procedures and harassment of patients entering or leaving it, as it used to serve 40 citizens in the Jenin Governorate.
Bakr confirmed that the hospital was able, after about a week from the beginning of the aggression on Jenin, to resume receiving cancer patients and provide them with the necessary treatments, for those who were able to reach them, while the outpatient clinic department remains closed 16 days after the aggression.
For his part, the Governor of Jenin said that the geometric and demographic shape of the camp will change completely, due to the bombing and destruction of homes and infrastructure caused by the occupation.
The occupation continues to carry out bombings and destruction of homes in Jenin camp, while sending continuous military reinforcements from the Jalameh military checkpoint to its surroundings.
